To allow the passengers to understand the system and its applications

No fares collected from the passengers

To help the drivers for safe and comfortable ride and proper maneuvering and

docking at bus stations To check the physical aspects and allow the scope for rectifications before the

system operationalizes

To understand public opinions and feedback

Thank God for BRTS. I avoided thetraffic jam around the venue. People hadparked bikes halfway into the roadcreating bottlenecks. I avoided beingstressed out by taking the bus. Bhavin Choksy who came with hisfamily

Why waste time in traffic? With itsdedicated corridor, the bus reaches fasterAnd if you miss one bus, another will bealong in a few minutes. And, it isabsolutely free Narayan Kothari, resident of
