BUSES' PURCHASE PROSPECT * India - BMTC in top gear
Already the operator of the country’s biggest public bus fleet, BMTC, now plans to roll out 1,000 more buses next year. "More buses = fewer cars"
Bangalore,India -The Times Of India /The Bangalore Blog, by R Krishnakumar -13 Aug 2008: -- The Bangalore Metropolitan Transport Corporation (BMTC) is pitching the equation with great enthusiasm as a solution to the congestion on Bangalore’s roads. The corporation is planning to increase the number of buses, as part of an ongoing fleet expansion, by another 1,000 next year. Already the operator of the biggest public bus fleet in the country, the BMTC is rolling out more buses when issues like absence of dedicated bus lanes remain. The idea, though, is to combine accessibility, frequency and efficiency... Dastagir Sharieff, chief traffic manager (operations), BMTC, told The Times Of India that the expansion is part of a drive to increase the modal split of public transport in Bangalore.
