Importance of the site

The people from sattva opus not able to access metro smoothly. The service bus drivers behave rudely, push out people just to stop there, it is cluttering and making dasarahalli 100% inaccessible. The route is used by many senior citizens to access the park nearby, backside roads or to cross to the other side which is aided by a crossover given which is through metro station itself. Working towards a better route for everyone will make the site accessible and inclusive for everyone for day to day activities and mobility.

Proposed idea / vision:

1. Bus service halt can be shifted towards and after Sattva opus beside the empty stretch of land which is not developed and belongs to government. 2. Breakers / dividers can be given to the highway barricades for smooth mobility to opposite side for inclusion, as not everyone can access the metro station. 3. Red light stop can be integrated with AI for crowd management. 4. The space which is being used by Bus right now, the space is beside Sattva opus and in between dasarahalli metro hence it disturbs all 360 families as the crowd and bus horn sounds amplifies extremely during peak hours. Shifting the bus service pick up to ahead will help decrease the noise pollution. 5. The same place and area can be given to vegetable vendors and develop the highway for people staying nearby.
