Senior Transport Planner at Bangalore Metro Rail Corporation Limited

About

Urban Transport Planner and Architect with 11+ years of experience delivering strategic mobility solutions across consulting, government, metro rail corporations, and research institutions. I have contributed to transport planning and policy assignments across multiple Indian cities, working at the intersection of infrastructure, governance, and sustainability. Recently I had worked in structuring of Urban Transport Funds and institutional strengthening frameworks for metropolitan transport authorities. My previous work includes reviewing Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) policy for Bengaluru, contributing to city mobility plans, preparing road and corridor improvement strategies, and supporting BRT and multimodal integration initiatives. At TERI, I worked on sustainable urban freight electrification roadmaps and EV transition strategies across three major cities, including implementation of electric feeder pilot projects aligned with inclusive mobility goals. My experience spans transport and traffic impact assessments, emissions analysis, policy formulation, electric mobility in IPT segment, stakeholder coordination, and capacity building for public agencies. I have engaged with state governments, metro corporations, multilateral-supported programs, and international forums, contributing to policy briefs, research publications, and technical advisory initiatives. I am particularly interested in integrated transport planning, climate-responsive mobility systems, institutional reform, and financing frameworks that enable scalable and resilient urban infrastructure.
