Common ticket for travelling on bus, metro soon

New Delhi: Commuters in the national capital
will soon be able to avail the facility of common ticketing
for travelling on both DTC buses and metro trains.

Delhi Transport Minister Arvinder Singh Lovely said the
common ticketing will be introduced on November 24 on an
experimental basis in certain areas of the city.

"Common ticketing will help those commuters who travel
both on metro and DTC buses," he told reporters on the
sidelines of the inauguration ceremony of the 13.1 km Yamuna
Bank-Noida metro line.

The transport authorities of the Delhi government and the
DMRC have already held several rounds of discussions to
finalise the facility.
