“The idea is to transform the fleet to cater to the growing ridership and also increasing demand for comfortable rides in the state buses. This, the corporation, says will be a lot cheaper than inducting new buses with the dimensions of Volvo buses. The overall cost of producing these buses will be around Rs 25 lakh per bus. The only workshop of the Haryana State Engineering Corporation, which is in Gurgaon, has claimed that it has the capacity of producing over 70 such buses each month and expects to provide the proposed 809 such buses to the transport department within a year of getting the approval from the ICAT. The number of seats will also go up from the existing 52 to 56. With the recently proposed modifications, the length will be increased to around 13 metres.

In that year, the length of the state roadways buses was increased from nine-metre to 11 metres.

This will be the second such change in the design of the roadways buses since 2012. Once approved, 809 new buses will be added to the fleet of the roadways. After preparing the model, it will be sent to International Center for Automotive Technology (ICAT) for approval. In this, one chassis is from Ashoka Leyland, while the other chassis is from Tata. The Haryana State Engineering Corporation has started preparing two buses as models for sampling. By adding new seats and increasing the dimensions of the buses, we will also maximise the revenue generation and also will be able to ensure adherence to Covid-19 protocols,” said a senior official. The engineering department has planned to make some ergonomic changes in the design that will make boarding and seating more comfortable for passengers. “There’s a proposal to make some modifications in the existing fleet of our state roadways buses. For this, the department is working on a prototype model, which will be sent for approval before the changes can be made in the existing fleet of the state transport. The state roadways department is planning to increase the size of its buses and add more seats to them so as to not only accommodate more passengers in each bus but also increase the revenue generation per bus. Gurgaon: In an attempt to maximise revenue generation and recover losses incurred during the pandemic, the Haryana transport department has decided to change the design of its buses on the lines of Volvo buses to accommodate more passengers.
