Hosur Road

Hosur Road is a wide highway running through southern Bangalore, crossing through neighborhoods and business areas along its route. The road includes separate lanes for buses and general traffic, with metro stations positioned at intervals along the way.

This route began as a connection between Bangalore and the town of Hosur during the early 1900s. The road grew wider over time as the city expanded and more vehicles needed to pass through each day.

Street vendors and local markets line sections of Hosur Road, representing the traditional commerce patterns of Karnataka's urban landscape.

Public transport runs regularly along this route, with several metro stops along the stretch for easy connections. The road gets busy during rush hours, so traveling early morning or later in the evening helps avoid slower traffic.

Some sections sit on raised platforms that remain passable during monsoon rains when other roads flood. This design helps keep key routes open even during heavy downpours.
