Now the bus stop for all these buses has been relocated to near Adishakti Complex with a new bus stop having been created here.


Even though traffic signals have been newly installed at Nanthoor junction, the buses going towards KPT have a free left passage. Therefore there is no need fpr the buses to stop near Nanthoor junction. Hence, only buses going towards Bikarnakatte are allowed to stop at the bus stop near the junction. Then again, the buses are not permitted to stay there for long and must exit soon after picking up its passengers. Only then will it be possible to improve the flow of traffic.
