MUMBAI: The BEST plans to increase its bus services from outside Lokmanya Tilak Terminus and Bandra Terminus railway stations to cater to the increasing rush of passengers.

A senior BEST official from traffic wing said, "We have written letters to the railway authorities and are asking for allotment of more space to create bus stations and stops. We also want to park five to seven buses at any given time so that passengers arriving by trains can get continuous bus service from these two stations.

Thousands of passengers arrive in Mumbai by long distance trains, especially during the early morning hours.

At present the BEST runs 50 buses and 200-250 trips from Bandra Terminus, the most popular among them being bus No 310 to Kurla. It also plies route numbers 303 (Mulund) and 316 (Bandra colony). While there is no demand for buses at Mumbai CST station, the bus undertaking has services upto LTT on a couple of routes including an air-conditioned bus AS-5. "There are 50 trips operated daily,'' the official stated.

Meanwhile, on Wednesday, the BEST launched two new ferry (ring) routes outside Marol/ Airport Road/ Chakala and Azad Nagar Metro train stations. "While we may increase feeder routes outside Metro depending on demand, there are no plans to have any bus service close to the Monorail station,'' said BEST general manager Om Prakash Gupta. The Metro train service operates in Mumbai from Ghatkopar to Versova stations via Andheri while the Monorail runs from Wadala to Chembur.
