Mangalore, Jul 28:
District magistrate and deputy commissioner Dr N S Channappa Gowda in an announcement said that permission has been granted for the AC coach Volvo buses to ply to and fro Mangalore central raiway and Bajpe Airport.

He stated in an order that if two buses take 12 trips a day, there wont be any disruption in the transport system in the city. The bus will ply from the airport through Kavoor, Bajpe, KSRTC, Lalbaug, Jyothi, Central Railway Station, K S Rao Road, PVS Circle, Bunts Hostel Circle, Jyothi, St Agnes, Mallikatte, Nanthoor, KPT, Kavoor, Bondel and KSRTC.

    I traveled in one of these last week, I was the ONLY passenger.. are people really using these services, the conductor said almost every trip is the same story, max they have 2 passengers. its really waste of money, if these are not scheduled as per the flight timings. NONE of the buses help any passenger travelling from/to bangalore, NONE. someone needs to look at it.

    Scheduling them as per domestic flights is more useful than the international ones, as most of the international travelers would have booked a taxi anyways due to their baggage. Its the domestic passengers who travel often & with less bags and more importantly travel alone. PLEASE PLEASE look into this & someone pass this request to concerned... thanks

    Please increase the frequency of this bus by starting one bus every half an hour from the airport to city.Also consider starting these buses to BC road from the Airport.

    We thank the Dy. Commissioner D.K for responding quickly to the citizen's suggestion. Trust a suitable Board will be displayed both within the Mangalore Central Rly. Station as well as outside indicating the boarding spot as well as the timings.
