Uber & Ola

[#taxi]Your Uber app will work in India. Ola is a homegrown version with a seperate mobile app.

Auto Rickshaw Plenty of them available in the city. There's even the Uber version. For the non app based rides, negotiate the routes & fare upfront. [#auto]Great way to commute short distances, real quick ( no need to wait for the Uber cab to arrive)

[#rail]

Metro

A fast and cheaper way to travel, wherever these metro lines are available. Bangalore still is developing the full fledged network. Try the Purple Line & Green Line

Bike Sharing

Yulu is a Bike (Bicycle) sharing service.
[#bicycle]You'll see these blue color bikes parked almost anywhere in the city, esp around the residential and workplace area.

The bike is integrated with a smartphone app. Through the app you can lock/Unlock the bike & of course pay the rental. Very convenient to move around in you locale. Try this only after you familiarise with the area and your comfort level to depend on the bike to move around.

Traffic

Never underestimate the Bangalore traffic. Especially the busy hours of morning and afternoon. If there is one spoiler of your itinerary in Bangalore, it's the obnoxiously slow moving traffic, in the business districts. 1 hour to to commute 10km (6 miles) is not unusual in certain parts during peak hours.
