Bus Routes That Pass Through Bellandur
Bellandur Gate is a major node on the Outer Ring Road, so it is served by the dense 500 family of ORR routes, the Sarjapur Road buses, and the airport services. The routes below are the high-frequency ones covering the gate and the corridor. Numbers and exact stops are simple to verify on Google Maps or BMTC route search by entering a from-and-to point through Bellandur.
| Route number(s) | Connects | Key Bellandur points covered |
|---|---|---|
| 500 series | Outer Ring Road trunk services | Bellandur Gate, Ecospace, Devarabisanahalli, and Kadubeesanahalli toward Silk Board and KR Puram |
| 500A, 500CA, 500D and variants | Banashankari, ITPL, and Hebbal via the ORR | The Bellandur Gate and Ecospace stops on the tech corridor |
| 505 and 505E series | Electronic City and Kadugodi via the ORR | Bellandur Gate, Ecospace, and Devarabisanahalli toward ITPL |
| MF-1C and metro feeders | Silk Board to KR Puram metro | The Bellandur stops linking the corridor to the metro stations |
| 502 series | Cross city routes via the ORR | The Bellandur Gate and Devarabisanahalli stretch |
| KIA airport services | Bellandur to Kempegowda International Airport | Direct airport links from the ORR |
- The 500 family is the backbone here, since Bellandur Gate and Ecospace are fixed stops on most ORR routes, so a branded bus is seen by the full tech corridor crowd, not just local riders.
- The ORR through Bellandur runs slow and dense through most of the day, so buses spend long minutes in view of stationary office traffic, which lengthens the time the branding stays visible.
