Lal bagh can be easily accessed via local transport buses. A bus to Lal Bagh is easily available from Kempegowda Bus Station. Accessing via road is much easier than any other transport system. The only difficulty people will find in Bangaluru is the traffic of the city. Whatever mode of transport may it be, the traffic congestion in the city will be a challenge to the visitors. If a passenger gets down at Yashwantpur railway station, Majestic is close by where access to buses going to different directions in Bangaluru is available.
