Delhi Govt Launches Two New Bus Routes to Boost Public Transport Connectivity

Transport Minister Kailash Gahlot, along with Bijwasan MLA Bhupinder Singh Joon, flagged off the 892 SPL route, a dedicated service designed for schoolchildren. This route will operate twice each in the morning and afternoon, covering a 6.5-kilometer path from Dhoolsiras Village to Chhawla School to meet school schedules.

Additionally, the 892 STL route has been launched to improve connectivity between villages, such as Nanak Heri, and urban centers, including Dwarka Sector-10. Spanning approximately 19 kilometers, this route will provide reliable transportation for daily commuters and connect essential locations like the Dwarka Sector-21 metro station, Chhawla Village, and the BSF camp.

The government has also enhanced bus frequency on route 716, which operates between Shivaji Stadium and Dhoolsiras. With two new air-conditioned CNG buses added, the route now offers 16 trips per day, doubling its frequency to accommodate increased demand. Key stops include Lady Hardinge Hospital, Palam, and Dwarka Court, providing smoother connections for commuters across these areas.

“We are committed to making public transport more accessible and reliable, particularly for residents of villages and outer Delhi. These new routes will offer a cleaner, safer, and more efficient travel experience for all commuters,” said Gahlot.
