Delhi Roads to be free from traffic jams because of broken buses, because DTC introduces this 15 -minute rule

The Delhi Transport Corporation (DTC) has issued a new SOP to remove broken buses in the National Capital and has deployed cranes and Quick Response Teams (QRTs) on 30 important locations in the city that will check and function to remove the defective buses.

Under the new SOP, the defective buses are removed within 15 minutes. The buses purchased in 2010 have reached the end of their lifetime, and their annual maintenance contracts (AMCs) have also expired, so the government plans to remove them from the roads, a high officer said.

At least 100-123 buses go off daily, especially in areas such as ISBT Kashmere Gate, Minto Bridge, Sarai Khan, ITO, AIIMS Flyover and Dhaula Kuan. Keep this in mind, the new SOP has been published, he added.

According to the new SOP issued, the QRTs formed must respond within 5 minutes of receiving a breakdown warning. After this, the buses are dragged to the nearest depot within 15 minutes. A round clock in control room has been determined for the same thing. The flooding problem will also be checked by it.

To make it function smoothly, 100 camp control teams have been deployed and 70 mobile bicycle teams will solve on -site brake failures. This decision comes in an attempt to improve the transport infrastructure and facilities in the state. The most important focus is to remove the buses that have reached their life of the services and are unable to be used.

The government is also planning to make the bus depots in commercial Hubs from Delhi, who will generate a turnover of RS 2600 Crore. On May 2, the Delhi government also launched mini-electric buses, Devi, in the national capital to increase the last mile connectivity. The government is also planning to launch more electric buses on the roads of the national capital.
