Delhi Transport Minister Kailash Gehlot on Wednesday announced the starting of trial runs on two new routes of the Mohalla Bus service for seven days from Kailash Colony Metro Station to PNB Geetanjali and Lok Kalyan Marg Metro Station to Vasant Vihar. Trials are already underway on two other routes -- Pradhan Enclave Pushta to Majlis Park Metro Station and Akshardham Metro Station to Mayur Vihar Phase III Paper Market. On the start of the trial run of Mohalla buses on two new routes, Gahlot said, We are providing efficient and convenient travel options to Delhiites by improving last-mile connectivity, so that more and more Delhiites can adopt public transport instead of private vehicles, He added that they have also included major educational institutions like Motilal Nehru College, Jesus and Mary College, Maitreyi College, Sri Venkateswara College, LSR College, Central School and Vocational College as stops in the trial of Mohalla buses on two new routes, so that the transport needs of the residents living nearby as well as youth and students can be met. After flagging off the Mohalla bus in his constituency, senior AAP leader and Delhi Minister Saurabh Bharadwaj said for a very long time, there was a demand by the people from posh colonies such as Greater Kailash Part-1, Malviya Nagar to start a small-bus service, like the Mohalla Bus Service, for them. It covers many metro stations, Saket Mall, three big markets as well as big hospitals such as PSRI and Max. So, I think this is a good bus service and people were eagerly waiting for it. I thank our Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and our Transport Minister Kailash Gahlot for this, he said.
