Whitefield Bus Stop — anchored at the Whitefield BMTC terminus in east Bengaluru — is one of the city’s most celebrated and most commercially significant transit points, serving as the eastern gateway to what has become India’s most iconic IT suburb. Once a quiet Anglo-Indian settlement on the city’s periphery, Whitefield today is a sprawling technology township whose global campuses, luxury residential complexes, malls, hospitals, and restaurants have made it one of South Asia’s most remarkable urban transformations — and the bus stop at its centre has evolved with it, now sitting directly adjacent to Whitefield (Kadugodi) Metro Station on the Namma Metro Purple Line, inaugurated in March 2023.
The BMTC services at Whitefield connect this eastern suburb to every corner of Bengaluru — a network that, combined with the Metro, makes Whitefield one of the most comprehensively served transit zones in the city.
