Channasandra Bus Stop: Location, Timings, Facilities, Bus Routes & Nearby Area

Channasandra Bus Stop is one of east Bengaluru’s most strategically vital BMTC stops — a key transit point on the Whitefield Main Road in the Channasandra area of Bengaluru’s booming eastern technology corridor. The stop’s greatest distinction is its extraordinary proximity to Hopefarm Channasandra Metro Station on the Namma Metro Purple Line — one of the few bus stop clusters in the entire city that sits within a 1-minute walk of a Metro station, making Channasandra a genuinely seamless bus-to-Metro interchange. The 304 and 305 series of BMTC routes fan out from Channasandra toward dozens of villages and IT corridors east of Whitefield — including Chikka Thirupathi, Arehalli, Muthkur, Kattiganahalli, Kodihalli, and beyond — making this stop the primary transit gateway for the rural-to-urban commuter belt spreading outward from Bengaluru’s easternmost IT suburb.
