Urbanisation in Bengaluru has been rapidly increasing,
leading to significant mobility issues.
The city is ranked as the 6th most congested
globally, highlighting the severity of traffic problems.
Research by WRI India in Bengaluru has shown that nearly 70% of metro users travel for work. However, they regularly face minor obstacles like increased wait time, lack of last-mile connectivity and more that increase their commute time.
Bengaluru needs a single platform that combines information from various transport modes to encourage more people to use public transport.
This will allow commuters to access real-time updates on public transit schedules, plan journeys, and pay for all their tickets on one portal. This integrated approach would make public transportation more accessible, efficient, and user-friendly, potentially alleviating congestion and improving overall mobility in the city. However, they regularly face minor obstacles like increased wait time, lack of last-mile connectivity and more that increase their commute time.

Expensive and unreliable daily commute solutions
Low public transport usage due to poor first and last-mile connectivity.
Lack of multimodal transport options
No real-time information on public transport
