Tata magic or winger for last mile connectivity 02/16/10 18:34 - vinod_shankar
I'm proposing a few options for last mile connectivity. If BMTC cannot operate shuttle service, then it makes sense for BMTC to buy the vehicles and ask private players to operate on designated route and frequency. This is model followed by delhi metro to run its feeder buses. BMTC needs to innovate in this space try a few models to see if it makes sense.

JnNurm funds are being used and announcements being made by BMTC about launching new busses on Blr roads..everything is being done in a hurry.. They are saying about 200 of Marcopolo's will be ordered..are they worth it? They cost 20-30% less than the Volvo's but have been found lacking in refinements which are basic at that cost! 1. The engines are way too noisy...even on normal roads..the bus struggles to start and passengers in the bus can hear the loud engine..even people in the traffic arround the bus can hear the loud noise! 2. The AC is not efficient..there are reports of passengers sweating inside the bus! 3.The automatic doors have issues and transmission too With all the issues, is it really worth going for these busses.. On the other hand KSRTC low floor bus design has been found commendable by the centre http://www.deccanherald.com/content/52727/centre-commends-ksrtc-bus-design.html Should we just go for such busses than the Marcopolos? person srinidhi's post | forum 24 Comments | Read More

BMTC Daily Pass - M/F Significance. 02/16/10 06:34 - Bheema.Upadhyaya
I was just wondering what is the significance of marking M/F (Male/Female) in daily passes. Does this help BMTC/public in any way or just an overhead to conductor to mark M/F? Today I have seen an incident conductor did not mark it properly and there was a big fight. Another day I have seen a conductor asked a lady to get down from the bus , as her pass was not marked clearly as female pass. person Bheema.Upadhyaya's post | forum 32 Comments | Read More
