Confusion over E-City stations in Bengaluru
After the opening of Yellow Line, the naming of Electronics City and Konappana Agrahara stations has led to confusion. Many argue Electronics City station should have been named Konappana Agrahara, and vice-versa. Bangalore South MP Tejasvi Surya posted on X: "If you buy a ticket to Konappana Agrahara, you'll get off at Electronics City. So, you would have crossed your intended station one stop before and will also be fined for the same. BMTC at least calls Electronic City 'Electronic City' and Konappana Agrahara 'Konappana Agrahara', but that just means you now need to memorise two different name sets and mentally swap them when switching between Metro and bus. " A BMRCL official said while preparing the DPR for building the Yellow Line, two stations were proposed at Electronics City — the first one was named Electronics City I and the second Electronics City. Subsequently, with the govt's nod, the name of the first station (after Hosa Road) was retained as Electronics City, and the next station was named Konappana Agrahara.

Mumbai Metro-4 Trial Runs From September, Coastal Route In Works: Thane Awaits Traffic Respite
Authorities have confirmed that trial runs for Mumbai Metro-4 will begin in September, with full operations expected to start by the end of this year Thane is witnessing rapid development with several infrastructure projects taking shape. Among them, the Wadala-Ghatkopar-Kasarvadavali Metro Line 4 is moving forward at a steady pace. Authorities have confirmed that trial runs for the metro will begin in September, with full operations expected to start by the end of this year. Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde expressed confidence that the long-awaited metro will finally become a reality for Thane residents. He said the upcoming network, which will connect Wadala, Thane, Mira-Bhayander, and Mumbai, will be complemented by an internal metro route within Thane. This, he assured, will play a major role in reducing the city's chronic traffic congestion. Traffic jams have become a daily frustration for Thane's citizens. Ongoing roadworks, construction activity, and the city's growing population have pushed traffic movement to a crawl in several areas. Commuters often spend long hours in transit, with peak-hour gridlocks affecting both local and intercity travel. Officials believe that once the metro begins operations, the shift from road to rail will ease the pressure on Thane's overburdened streets. In addition to the metro, a new coastal route is also in the works. The proposed road will connect Thane directly to the coastline, running from Saket Creek to Ghodbunder Road via Gaimukh and Fountain. It will link with the Mumbai-Ahmedabad Highway, creating an alternative corridor for vehicles that currently pass through Thane's crowded streets. According to Shinde, this diversion will help channel non-local traffic away from the city and free up space for local commuters. The combination of the metro network and the coastal route is expected to significantly improve connectivity within the Mumbai Metropolitan Region. For Thane, these projects represent not just convenience but also a relief from the constant noise, pollution, and delays caused by the current traffic chaos. With the trial run of the metro now just weeks away, residents are hopeful that years of waiting and enduring road congestion will finally pay off. The success of these projects, however, will depend on timely completion, efficient operation, and proper integration with other modes of transport. As the countdown to the September trial run begins, the city is looking forward to a future where travel is faster, smoother, and far less stressful. view comments First Published: Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
