More buses arrive in Karachi for People’s Bus Service: Sharjeel

KARACHI:

Former Sindh minister for information, transport, and mass transit Sharjeel Inam Memon announced on Saturday that a new batch of buses for the People’s Bus Service has arrived in Karachi for the second phase of the transport project.

Sharing the information on the social media platform ‘X’ (formerly Twitter), the Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) leader shared that “these buses were procured by PPP’s Sindh government”.

The intra-district People’s Bus Service project was launched in Karachi in June 2022 by the government of Sindh during the PPP’s tenure. The air-conditioned buses were imported from China.

Sharjeel further said that the people of Karachi could now avail this ‘amazing service’ at the best economical price.

Sharjeel added that the buses would be operational for public use in a few days.

For the Peoples Intra District Bus Service project’s first phase, around 240 air-conditioned buses were imported from China. In the first phase, seven routes had been finalised initially on which 240 buses have operated.

Later, after an increase in demand, the PPP-led Sindh government expanded the seven routes by including Clifton, Defence and Gulshan-e-Hadeed routes in July 2022.
