This is the supermaze of all. mayhem is not even close to describe the traffic chaos that happens here every day between 8 am and 9 pm.
2 major flyovers , one end of a cable stayed 2 KM long bridge, 8 - 12 lane roads, and a narrow 2 lane railyway bridge which bisects the 8 lane old madras road, village roads crossings to stop arterial traffic before and after the railway underpass, a 30 feet road leading to a area of 50 blocks as an arterial road to this region, another lowlying layout build on a lake with just 20 feet road making way to 8 blocks of residential layout with 100s of apartment(all 5+floors), massive truck traffic in the city during the day, 3 major bottlenecks at the both the ends of this 1 KM stretch and one inbetween, a busstop at the beginning of the bridge, 8 lanes of a 12 lane road enchroached by indiscriminate parking, 2 lanes of the arterial OMR encroached as a railway platform and auto rickshaw stand, all this in a place over which the most expensive cable stayed bridge of bangalore was made only to render it useless. welcome to Old madras road, the epitome of the word which is a super-superlative of word mayhem - Bangalore traffic.
do you think we are crazy? and its anarchy in this country. no we are the self proclaimed greatest democrazy of this world.
how is the situation now in 2010?
