💡 Travel Tips for 500-F

  • Track the bus live on the Namma BMTC app or Google Maps before leaving home.
  • Carry small change or use UPI — conductors may not have change for large notes.
  • If you ride more than 2 trips/day, a daily pass (₹60 ordinary / ₹120 AC) saves money.
  • Peak hours (7:30-10:30 AM, 5:00-9:30 PM) — board early to get a seat; the second bus is often emptier.
  • Women travellers can use the 6 reserved seats near the front of the bus.
  • Where the route crosses a Namma Metro station, switching to metro for cross-city is usually faster.
