Bluelines to make a comeback

Monday, Oct 18, 2010



After a temporary hiatus in order to help present a more civilised version of Delhi's traffic to visitors during the Commonwealth Games, blueline buses will roll out on the Capital's roads today.

Nearly 1,600 bluelines will be back on the roads in south and central Delhi after a gap of almost 20 days, a big relief to commuters who faced considerable problems during the sporting event.

Though these buses are known for over-speeding, the service is a lifeline for people especially in  areas where there is no Metro connectivity.

Meanwhile, the Delhi Transport Corporation will start inducting the 1,200-odd buses used for ferrying athletes and other dignitaries during the CWG.
