What are the connectivity options from Howrah to other terminals of Kolkata? I presume direct buses are available to Sealdah. What about KOAA and Shalimar? Also, where the nearest metro and tram heads from HWH?

From HWH we have direct connections towards SHM-SRC-SDAH. for KOAA you have two ways to reach there -1) Go to SDAH and change BUS (Longest) 2)Cross HWH Bridge the take EMU heading towards KOAA (circular railway) (shortest).
For nearest metro station MG ROAD Metro station(Buses going towards Esplande).

Re# 1843267-5              
1)That means direct buses to Shalimar station are available from HWH?[direct buses from sealdah can be obtained then to koaa and back?]
2)After crossing HWH bridge, from which station do I board the circular railway?

Take any EMU going towards HWH[lots of them go, usually they come from KGP side], many long distance trains also stop here, they can also be taken. Sealdah lies on a different route and direct connectivity via rail isn't possible. One option is to take a train to HWH and board a direct bus for SDAH[There could be smaller road routes going from SRC to SDAH but I am not aware of that].

Yes bro,
again
From HWH direct connection through BUS are available to following destinations-
1-SHM
2-SDAH
3-SRC
...
more...

For KOAA you can reach via two routes
1-Go to SDAH then take EMU or you can take Bus (longest one).
2-Cross HWH Bridge then board EMU of circular railways*(STN-EDEN GARDENS/BARABAZAR)(Shortest path).
*Kindly confirm the schedule of EMU's before boarding.

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake. These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
