After a wait of almost 12 years, residents of the Bangalore Development Authority (BDA) apartments at Kaniminike, located off the Bengaluru-Mysuru Expressway, finally got their first BMTC bus service, addressing their long-pending demand for better public transport connectivity to the area.The new service will operate between Bidadi and Kengeri TTMC, passing through Hejjala Cross, Judicial Layout, the Kaniminike BDA Apartments (Phase 2), Kaniminike, Kumbalgodu, Anchepalya, Basavanagar and Kengeri Police Station before terminating at Kengeri TTMC.Residents said the bus entering the apartment complex itself is a major relief, as the nearest bus stop was nearly 2 km away, leaving commuters to depend on autos and cabs that were difficult to access throughout the day.
