The BMTC sources told Deccan Herald that there have been two meetings on feeder services between the two agencies and final decision has not been arrived at so far.
“The two meetings were only preliminary in nature. We are yet to finalise the routes and decide on the number of additional buses to be pressed into service,” a senior officer said.
The BMTC is expected to ply additional buses whereever there is a requirement, and in places where it does not have its services. Also, the Corporation is planning to increase the number of buses during night to cater to Metro passengers. While the BMRCL officers are exuding confidence about the feeder services for Reach-1, the BMTC is yet to come clear.
With just two months for the December deadline to commission Reach-1, the BMRCL is hoping that the feeder service plans are finalised at the earliest.
