Devanahalli Old Bus Stand
✈️ Details
▼
Devanahalli Old Bus Stand is the older BMTC bus stop in the historic core of Devanahalli town, in Bengaluru Rural district, about 40 km north of central Bengaluru near the old Bangalore–Hyderabad road. It sits in the town centre close to Devanahalli Fort, the Venugopala Swamy Temple and the old town market, and is distinct from the newer Devanahalli TTMC on NH 44 about 2 km away. The stop handles BMTC services towards Majestic, KR Market, Hebbal, Yelahanka and Nelamangala, and is the closest boarding point for anyone visiting the fort or the old town. There is no metro station at Devanahalli — the nearest operational Namma Metro is Madavara, the northern terminus of the Green Line (Silk Institute–Madavara), about 25 km south. The Blue Line extension to KIA is planned along the airport corridor but no station is in service at Devanahalli as of 2026. Kempegowda International Airport (KIA) is about 15 km east via NH 44.
