Meeting held to review special bus arrangements for festivals

A meeting was held on Saturday to review the arrangements for operating special buses by the Tamil Nadu State Transport Corporation for the upcoming holidays on account of Aayudha Puja and Deepavali.

Since many will leave for their home towns to celebrate the festivals, additional special buses will be operated. In the meeting held at the Kalaignar Centenary Bus Terminus in Kilambakkam, discussions were held regarding the operation of special buses, omni buses, basic amenities for passengers, and measures to be taken to prevent traffic congestion. Discussions were also held to create temporary bus stands and identify locations for the parking of additional buses.

A.R. Rahul Nadh, member secretary of the Chennai Metropolitan Development Authority, and Chengalpattu Collector M. Veerappan chaired the meeting.
