Daily jam caused by AMD buses at Bangalore

If you work for AMD or know someone who does, please pass this on to them asking to share with AMD India management.

Every evening between 4 - 5:45 PM, the BMTC buses hired by AMD are illegally parked in the middle of the road in front of AMD office (the road opp to Tesco) at WhiteField EPIP Zone. The drivers just park and go for tea/snacks and other road users have just one lane left to use, causing a jam almost everyday. Daily I lose 15min trying to get my car out. On several occasions, I have tried entering the office speaking with the concerned AMD officials but the security at the reception always prevented me and simply directs me to the transport contractor who does nothing useful. Just today, I spoke to one facilities guy from AMD who was also not very keen in solving the issue.

See the linked video which clearly shows the double parking and the company name in the Bus's electronic board.

I wonder if such irresponsible behavior by this company would be tolerated in its parent country?

Why don't you post a complaint in Bangalore traffic police facebook page??

Its the AMD guys who have to take the blame for this. They should have made arrangements for the Big Volvo buses to park and pick up the employees. The chaos at Manyata due to these Volvo buses is huge, but the drivers cant be blamed cos they simply dont have space.

Also, I notice that the impatient 2 wheelers butting in while you were reversing.

AMD continues to have Front Side Bus (FSB) issues still...

I have done that already. Will wait for some time before approaching the nearby traffic police station.

I checked with them and they asked me to approach the traffic station near Hope farm.

This is called pure attitude. They just want to close the issue. Even they would have felt the heat. They could also called the authorities and tell them.
