Bengaluru (Bangalore) - Getting There By Road

Main roads connect all the major towns in Karnataka as well as neighbouring states. Out of town they are often unpaved and in the monsoon season many become impassable though flooding.

In the event of a car breakdown one can call one of the bigger car hire companies, such as Connect Travel Services (tel: (080) 2554 1338), for advice on rescue.

For coaches the main operator is Karnataka State Road Transport Corporation (KSRTC) (tel: (080) 2287 0099; website: www.ksrtc.in) who operate buses throughout Karnataka and to neighbouring states. Interstate arrivals and departures are at the Central Bus Stand at Bhasyam Road just opposite the main city railway station (tel: (080) 2287 3377).

The state bus companies of the neighbouring states of Kerala, Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, Maharashtra and Goa also run buses in and out of Bengaluru. There are also a number of long distance private bus operators of whom the largest is Vijayanand Travels (tel: (080) 2228 7222).
