Transportation in Bengaluru is a mix of modern infrastructure and notorious traffic congestion. The **Namma Metro** is a rapidly expanding rapid transit system; its Purple and Green lines connect key parts of the city, with Yellow and Blue lines under construction.
The city relies heavily on buses operated by the **Bangalore Metropolitan Transport Corporation (BMTC)**, which boasts the largest fleet of air-conditioned city buses in India. **Kempegowda International Airport (BLR)**, located in Devanahalli (north of the city), is the third-busiest airport in India and a major global gateway.
Rail connectivity is served by major stations including KSR Bengaluru (Majestic), Yeshwantpur, and Sir M. Visvesvaraya Terminal (SMVB). For last-mile connectivity, auto-rickshaws, and ride-hailing apps like Ola, Uber, and Rapido are ubiquitous. Bicycle infrastructure is sparse but slowly improving in zones like CBD and Jayanagar.
