Rain, Flooding & Getting Around

Why heavy rain floods some areas, and how to cope.

A heavy downpour can flood underpasses and low-lying roads within an hour, especially where the old tank and channel network has been built over. Areas along Outer Ring Road, Bellandur, Mahadevapura and some underpasses in the centre are known trouble spots.

  • Check the hourly forecast before an evening commute.
  • The metro is usually the most reliable way to travel in heavy rain.
  • Follow weather news for official alerts from the KSNDMC and the IMD.
