10,000 e-buses to ensure last-mile connectivity
The Morning Standard
|September 01, 2023
AIMING at improved last-mile connectivity, 10,000 electric buses (e-buses) will be provided to 169 cities under the 'PM-eBus Sewa' in the next five-to-six month. The scheme will be based on a public-private partnership (PPP) model.
Speaking on the efforts made for 'urban transformation' since 2014, Union Minister for Housing and Urban Affairs (MoHUA) Hardeep Singh Puri said on Thursday that the Central government is going to procure air-conditioned buses soon under the scheme, which was recently approved by the Cabinet in order to augment city bus operations.
MoHUA secretary Manoj Joshi said that state governments are required to submit their proposals by September 30, for which the guidelines have already been issued.
The top official of the ministry further added that travelling on these electric buses would be a metro-like experience. The tickets for the e-buses would be available through an automatic fare system, he explained.
The scheme involves the Central and state governments as well as the service providers.
