SUMMARY
Known as the Silicon Valley of India, Bangalore is not only a hub for technology companies in India but also boasts an impressive presence of
world-renowned academic and research institutions. Rapid growth during the IT boom attracted a large number of people, which resulted in
growth in the number of vehicles and deterioration in air quality. For some time, the lack of transport-oriented development policies,
combined with narrow roads, contributed to its congestion issues. The government is now working toward promoting sustainable transport
through a range of innovative policies. The city also has the potential to engage its existing impressive IT infrastructure and Future of
Mobility–focused startups to lead development and roll out innovative solutions.
