Since I started dropping Eesha to school in the morning, I have started using BMTC Volvo bus to commute further to office (Manyata Tech Park @ Nagawara Jn,Hebbal). I'm happy and relieved!!
Actually, Manyata Embassy Business Park (MEBP) has tied up with BMTC to ply Volvo buses from Manyata campus to various routes within Bangalore and these buses covers pretty much all prominent localities. This is valid for 'all' employees working in Manyata irrespective of which company they work for. This is effective since 01-Jul-2013. To me, I have to say this couldn't have come at a more appropriate time. Since I opted out of the company transport facilities, I have been struggling to commute between office and home.
I really appreciate the efforts taken by Manyata Embassy Service Planning Limited in bringing Volvo to everyone and of course, many thanks to BMTC for running buses covering every areas.
The monthly pass is Rs.3600 and one can buy this from MEBP information center by paying cash. Additionally, this entitles the pass holder to utilize this pass for commuting in all BMTC buses (except BIAL shuttle) throughout the month. Only caveat - we need to get BMTC ID card that is available at BMTC counters @ KBS/Majestic.
I wish they continue this in the long term and more employees opt for this service instead of using their own four wheeler.

Hi,
ReplyDeleteBrand new to Bangalore ( was here 16 yrs back so does not count !!! ) and will be joining a company in a week in Manyata Tech Park. Was waiting at a BMTC bus stop when I saw these buses and they did not stop and could not find information anywhere on these !!! So ... is the MEBP info inside the embassy park ? And is there a site I can refer to for this ? I saw the main MEBP site but it said under construction !!!!
One needs BMTC ID to travel in the BMTC buses but not for the MEBP buses correct ?
Can you give me more info ? Numbers or a website ?
