This expansion is a response to the feedback received by Maha Metro in their ‘Metro Samvad’ programmes held at Rashtrasant Tukadoji Maharaj Nagpur University (RTMNU), MIDC Industries Association and other places. Students, industrial workers, and medical staff highlighted the need for better transportation options on specific routes. The new feeder services are expected to increase ridership for both Aapli Buses and Nagpur Metro, reduce traffic congestion and pollution, provide a convenient and affordable transportation, and aligns with NMC’s commitment to promote public transport and create a more sustainable city.
The feeder bus services were demanded on the route from Dharampeth College Metro Station to University Campus, Hingna MIDC area to Hingna village and Automotive Square to Sakkardara. Following the inputs received, Aapli Bus has green flagged the services that will start operations from March 18.
