Kathmandu. Common Transport has made its services technology-friendly and launched 'Digital Ticketing and Command and Control Center'. In a special ceremony held on Thursday, Kathmandu Metropolitan City Acting Mayor Sunita Dangol and Lalitpur Metropolitan City Chief Chiribabu Maharjan jointly launched the service.
Addressing the program, the Acting Mayor of Kathmandu Metropolitan City, Dangol, announced that the night bus service will be extended in the valley from the upcoming Constitution Day, 9 August 30. She said that the night service of two routes, which was started in cooperation with four municipalities namely Kathmandu, Lalitpur, Chandragiri and Budhanilkanth, will now be operated on six routes.
In the first 90 days of testing, more than 67,000 passengers have taken the night service. Now we are expanding the night bus service on 6 routes including Bhaktapur, Suryavinayak and Godavari,” said Dangol. Stating that a loss of around 10 lakh rupees was observed during the trial period, she expressed her belief that the digital payment system would prove to be a milestone in controlling revenue leakage.
