Kumaraswamy Layout is a sub locality in Banashankari, South Bengaluru, Karnataka, India. It is a relatively laidback area where one can find plenty of residences, educational institutions, government offices and commercial establishments. [3] [4]
Kumaraswamy Layout was formed in the late 1970's by the BDA. In recent years, it has been seeing development under the BBMP. Many residential infrastructure projects have been carried out in the locality, with many still in progress. Despite good progress in infrastructure, economy and population growth, there have been issues pertaining to garbage collection, cleanliness, public safety and water-logging. [5] [6] [7]
The area is easily accessible by Bengaluru Metropolitan Transport Corporation (BMTC) buses. Kumaraswamy Layout 2nd Stage is a sub Locality of Jayanagar Locality in Bangalore. Kumaraswamy Layout 2nd Stage is 8.46 km from Kempegowda Bus Station (Majestic Station).
Route numbers Chakra 3/3A (to Banashankari, RR Nagara), 402G (to Yelahanka Satellite Town 5th Phase), 202 (to Yeshwanthpura), 340C (to Parangipalya), 202E (to Mathikere), 374H (to Vijayanagara), 271M (to Jalahalli 7th camp) were discontinued due to poor response from the public.
