Bengaluru metro commuters face significant challenges with last-mile connectivity, often incurring high costs and long travel times beyond metro fares. A report estimates commuters need to earn around Rs 70,400 monthly to afford Rs 3,520 in travel expenses, including metro and connecting transport. Many spend more due to fragmented public transport. For example, Khushi S spends Rs 6,000 monthly on commuting despite earning Rs 30,000, highlighting the inefficiency beyond metro fares.
