In anticipation of increased passenger activity on the occasion of Bhaubij falling on Wednesday, the Brihanmumbai Electric Supply and Transport Undertaking announced the operation of 145 additional buses. These buses are ready to provide their services through Mumbai to Mira-Bhayandar, Thane and Navi Mumbai.
To manage the increase in ridership, BEST inspectors will be strategically deployed in crowded areas outside railway stations and major bus stops. Their role includes ensuring orderly queues and facilitating smooth boarding processes, said a BEST official.
In a proactive measure, the official further said, "If more buses are required on November 15, we will deploy them on busy routes to reduce crowding at bus stops." The initiative aims to improve the overall commuting experience for the public during festivals.
