Namma Metro - Namma Headache

What an ambitious project!! What pathetic planning. The guy who has planned this along with the elected morons deserve Darwin award (http://www.darwinawards.com/). One need not be a planning genius to figure out how the soil testing and pillar erection right in the middle of busy roads would affect the traffic. Worse the people in question do not seem to learn from their mistakes. For example having known the issues faced during the initial stages of the project at places like M.G Road etc, they should have done a better job at other sites. The "Singapore" dream has now more or less become "Singapura" nightmare. Traffic management near the metro sites is down right pathetic. BMTC stops next to traffic signals , roads congested on either side of a rail crossing and vehicles breaking down on one lane roads are few of the nightmares that one has to go through almost everyday . To top this every now and then the VIP (Very Irritating Persons) caravans cause major headaches to the daily commuters. Seems like we have elected these morons to cause us all the inconvinience. Bangalore traffic has become a matter of ridicule.
Hopefully the "Headache" project gets completed ASAP.
