Once you alight from a bus or train in Yelahanka, you'll not have to walk long distances to catch an autorickshaw to reach home or your workplace. With an intermodal transit hub (ITH) coming up, commuting from Yelahanka will become all that easier. In a passenger terminal in this project, people enter the facility through one mode (by car, bus or rail) and leave through another.
ITH is for terminals that serve multiple transit operators such as combined bus and rail systems like Metro and HSRL services, along with intermediate public transport network. It will have bus terminals and repair shops, Metro station, multi-level parking and property development.
KSIIDC-IL & FS Project Development Company (KIPDC) has submitted pre-feasibility report for ITH on a public-private partnership basis in Yelahanka to the infrastructure development department (IDD).
A senior official with IDD's public-private partnership cell said: "The developer who'll construct High-Speed Rail Link (HSRL) will also have to build the intermodal transit hub. Otherwise, he will have to get another developer who will be able to do it," the official said.
Intermodal transit hubs help provide last-mile connectivity. People needn't walk after getting down from a bus or train. The present system doesn't provide required infrastructure to help reach a commuter's final destination- Traffic expert M N Sreehari
ON THE MOVE
* Integrated bus terminals will serve as common facility to KSRTC and other state transport, private and BMTC buses.
* There will be a repair shop at the ground floor, including small workshop shed, washing platform, crew room, office area for BMTC/KSRTC and other state transport
* There'll be a Metro station and intermediate public transport, including autorickshaws and taxis.
* The system will include ticket reservation counters, tourism counters, food outlets, shopping centre, retail hypermart, three-star hotel, ATMs, bank counters, foreign exchange counters, visitor parking facilities, etc.
