ss87 - 19-NOV-2010

 Having used BMTC for almost a decade, learnt many interesting experiences. To reach a place we generally prefer to travel by the shorter route and if possible direct bus. But shorter route/direct route  may not always be the faster route,and if involves changing buses might be expensive too.

At last realization has dawn on BMTC for rationalization of its routes!

kbsyed61 - 23-APR-2009
