By ETF Desk
Kerala State Road Transport Corporation (KSRTC) has begun operations in the Mangaluru and Udupi districts of Karnataka, offering a new set of bus routes that connect these coastal regions with ease. The initiative aims to provide reliable public transport for daily commuters, traders, and students traveling between the districts.
The new service, launched on Saturday, covers key routes such as Mangaluru–Udupi, Udupi–Mangalore, and links to nearby towns and villages. KSRTC officials highlighted that the buses are equipped with modern seating and air conditioning to enhance passenger comfort. The company also emphasized that these routes will be integrated with existing Karnataka State Road Transport Corporation (KSRTC) schedules to allow seamless transfers.
For commuters, the improved connectivity means shorter travel times and a reduction in reliance on private vehicles, potentially easing traffic congestion and lowering carbon emissions. Local businesses anticipate benefits from easier access to markets, while students will find travel to educational institutions more convenient. The service is expected to boost economic activity and foster stronger ties between the two districts. Source: Google News – Udupi.
