Investing in park and share facilities : eg BIAL travel

I think it is time that we started to explore the options available for Park and Share facilities. If we consider the new services available for travel into BIAL from the city - eg. The Vayu Vajra, Airlift etc. All of them have a basic problem and that is of the last mile connection.

I have read about the last mile taxi option in the Vayu Vajra booking site, but, must confess that I do not want to test it. What would be good is if there were park and travel options at key places in the city. This will certainly reduce the amount of people trying to commute / traveling all the way to the airport in their own vehicles just because there is no option in the city for this.

I would love to be able to park (for example near Mekhri Circle) and then take the bus over to the BIAL airport.

Options ? Maybe time for private participation or even influencing BMRTC to think of an option (as they do have parking on top of Shivajinagar bus stand ?)
