Residents and daily commuters on the Bengaluru-Mysuru Road near Ring Road Junction in Mysuru have asked for a bus stop and a pre-paid auto stand, citing severe inconvenience from the ongoing flyover construction. Deccan Herald reports that KSRTC buses rarely halt at the junction unless the traffic signal is red, forcing hundreds of workers and college students to wait in the open. Auto drivers reportedly overcharge or refuse to go to certain areas, and parking on footpaths adds to the chaos. The assistant traffic inspector, Mahadev, said the difficulties are temporary and that introducing a bus stop now could worsen congestion and pose safety risks. He promised to reassess once the flyover work is completed. Commuters, however, note that the junction has lacked basic facilities for years and that the construction has only made things worse.
