Bengaluru’s footpaths belong to everyone but pedestrians
On several roads, the footpath changes height every few metres, pushing pedestrians to climb down and climb back repeatedly, while in some places like Mysuru Road, Banasawadi, Tumakuru Road, there is a footpath on one side of the road but none on the other. Now, with the Greater Bengaluru Authority (GBA), through its ‘Safe Footpath’ campaign attempting to remove the hurdles that pedestrians usually face, there are allegations that street vendors were removed from several locations, but that it has not acted. A damaged bollard lies on a footpath on Kasturba road in Bengaluru on July 03, 2026.
