Indian stations where public buses start or end their routes From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In India, an Inter State Bus Terminal or Inter-State Bus Terminus (ISBT) is a bus terminus that provides bus service to destinations located in other states. An ISBT may also provide bus services to destinations in the same state. Mostly ISBT term is used in the Northern part of India. In the Western part of India, Stand or State Transport term is used.
As of November 2024, Delhi has 3 operational ISBTs (managed by the Delhi Transport Infrastructure Development Corporation (DTIDC)), 3 more planned and approved for construction,[1] and few more have been proposed.[2][3]
At 37 acres (150,000 m2), the Puratchi Thalaivar Dr. M.G.R. Bus Terminus in Chennai, India, is the second largest bus station in Asia.[5] As of 2010, the terminus handled more than 500 buses at a time, and 3,000 buses and 250,000 passengers a day.[6]
Many Indian state governments have their own fleet of buses which are run under their state transport department. As per statistics, the State Road Transport Undertakings (STUs) altogether operates 1,50,000 buses. State-wise bus fleet is as follows
