Raju William Tribune News Service Gurgaon, July 22 Thousands of commuters between Gurgaon, Delhi and the National Capital Region may feel relieved as 23 CNG-operated buses, including seven low-floor air-conditioned ones, will start plying from tomorrow. The step follows the start of two CNG filling stations here. Without causing much pollution, the fleet of buses is expected to reduce dependence of commuters on DTC buses and private cabs. The routes of these buses have been identified. Staring from the Gurgaon bus stand, these buses will ply between 6 am and 10 pm. "It should be a great relief for professionals like us as we don't have any company-owned transport facility. With regular change of work shifts, most of the time we had to keep waiting for some transport vehicle after work to reach home in Gurgaon from Delhi,' said Mohit and Tushar Srivastava, young marketing executives working in Delhi. There are thousands of professionals and office-goers who work in Delhi but stay in rented accommodation in Gurgaon. Deputy commissioner Rakesh Gupta said commuters would definitely feel relieved as the number of buses of the Haryana Roadways would increase, plying between different destinations in Haryana and Delhi. This should also help prevent fleecing of commuters by private operators in terms of overcharging of fare. The buses will ply between Gurgaon, Safdurjung Terminal, Bahadurgarh, Ballabhgarh, the ISBT, Karol Bagh, Nehru Place, the ITO and Dusshera Ground. The low-floor AC buses will ply on 14 routes. Of these, eight routes are meant for Karol Bagh and two for Shivaji Stadium. The other four routes will go up to Safdurjung Terminal via AIIMS and Mehrauli. Starting at 7.30 am, these buses will daily make 12 rounds of Safdurjung Terminal and another 28 rounds between Gurgaon and Dhaula Kuan, besides 32 rounds between Gurgaon and Karol Bagh.
