| Summary, etc | For 15 years, Indian cities have favoured metros while neglecting buses, despite buses being cheaper, faster to implement, space-efficient, and delivering far higher ridership per investment. Most metro lines operate far below the 20,000-per-hour threshold that justifies them, leading to high costs, losses and fares. Successful bus lanes in Indian and global cities show buses offer similar comfort and speed at a fraction of the cost. – Reproduced https://www.epw.in/journal/2026/23/alternative-standpoint/looking-public-transport-alternatives.html |
