KR Puram’s traffic jams are infamous in Namma Bengaluru. How about we try to make it a problem of the past?

Now that prevention is out of the way, let’s talk about the cure:
1. Avoid Peak Hours — The obvious solution, but for anyone who has the choice — it’s the best option! If you can leave before or after peak hours, you’ll end up saving a lot of time. This would mean hitting high-traffic areas before 8.30 am or after 10 am. In the evenings, try commuting before 5.30 pm or after 8 pm.
2. Take alternate routes wherever possible — HAL Old Airport Road is the best alternative to get to Marathahalli/Whitefield without touching KR Puram’s bottleneck. If you’re travelling from Indiranagar, Ulsoor, MG Road, Domlur, Koramangala, this is the best option! It may seem a little longer, but you can get to your destination quicker by avoiding KR Puram traffic.
Unfortunately, this wouldn’t work if you’re travelling from Banaswadi or Horamavu to Whitefield. In these cases, it’s quicker than using an alternate route.
The best thing to do would be to and check out all public transport options. that avoids KR Puram if any, and have a happy commute! Find the best route
