Cooch Behar, Dec 26 (Siliguri Journal) – After a 10-year break, the North Bengal State Transport Corporation (NBSTC) plans to restart the Siliguri-Ranchi bus service. Not only that, but there are exciting plans for new bus services for everyone in the coming year. NBSTC Chairman Partha Pratim Roy shared these updates in a press conference at the NBSTC Head Office on Tuesday.
Chairman Partha Pratim Roy assured the media that the Siliguri-Ranchi bus services, halted due to registration and document issues, will restart soon. Excitingly, three buses with a combined capacity of 55 seats will be hitting the roads in the upcoming year. Furthermore, a new 27-seater Cooch Behar-Darjeeling bus service is set to operate three days a week, enhancing transportation options for the public.
Responding to passenger concerns about lengthy bus journeys, the transport corporation has taken a proactive step by introducing new buses. In an effort to address this issue, additional buses are set to be in operation during key events, including the Cooch Behar Book Fair, Alipurduar Dooars Utsav, and Falakata Book Fair. This move aims to enhance travel experiences and accommodate the increased demand during these events.
