Sir,

We, dwarkaites are facing a lot of problems due to shortage/ lack of proper strategy/planning of DTC bus service/ routes in Dwarka.

We have already discussed this issue several times in our Dwarka Forum group ( more than 1450 active members) for better DTC service system in Dwarka.
Some of the comments/ suggestions by members are:

* Connecting service with Metro Stations, Domestic/ International Airport.
* Frequent/ more service of low floor/ AC buses for Dwarka on various routes.
* There must be more/ new connecting routes/service from Dwarka towards other parts of Delhi
- Nehru Place -Okhla
-Bikaji Cama Place - CGO
-AIIMS-Lajpat Nagar
-Dhaula Kuan
- Noida
- Gurgaon
- There is no U-Specials for college students for South Campus and North Campus
* Nazafgarh - Dwarka -

Nehru Place route require proper planning/ strategy.
As we have only one bus route for Nehru Place ie. 764 which is over crowded all the times. Even though the frequency of route no 764 is 5-10 min in office hour, it is very difficult to get into the bus. Sometimes wait for 3-4 overcrowded buses to pass to just get in. DTC official should see these buses in office hours to get concrete solutions. They can easily observe the pathetic condition of commuters.

Suggestions:
-cut short the route to Dwarka- NP or Dwarka-IIT or Dwarka- BCP
for some buses.
-Provosion for more DTC buses during office hours
-Some chartered/ RTV buses charge Rs25/- for Dwaka-NP route.
so DTC can run A/C buses on this route and can earn profits.

* There is a requirement of Mini Mudrika/ Circular service type feeder bus service linking all the Sectors or closer to them for connectivity to Shopping complexes/ Metro stations etc.
*We can have monthly/ yearly subscription passes...

Proposed routes:
-Say starting from Sector 1 going towards Sect 4/5 then on to Sect 14 /coming towards 13,12,11,19,18 ,22,23,9,10,6/7 etc.

- Say starting from Sector 22 (last Metro station) going towards sec-9 through bharat vandana park, To sec-6-10 market through shiksha Bharti school, right to main road, left towards aashirwad chowk, -- back through nearby metro rail route ---

We appreciate the Chairman DTC and Transport Commissioner will accept the long stand demand of Dwarka Residents.
We look forward to hearing from you,

Thanking you,

subjectRe: Suggestions for better DTC service in Dwarka

Sir,

It is informed that provision of direct bus service from every part of the city at present is not feasible due to non availability of sufficient resources. Change over points have been established from where a commuter can make use of change over facility for going to their desired destination.

At present services of routes 727, 737, 764, 778, 801, 877, RL-77 and so many Spl trips provided from different sectors on different routes for various directions are serving Dwarka giving the direct bus connection to various parts of the city centres. The area residents may avail the benefit of the existing services available and make use of change over facility as per their convenience for going to their destination. However, these services of routes serving Dwarka Complex would be augumented on the arrival of additional buses to the fleet of the Corporation.

As regards provision of circular service to help residents to reach Metro in all the sectors, same is not feasible due to the above reason.

So far as requirement of Mini Mudrika type feeder service linking all the sectors, you are requested to take up the matter with the Secretary, State Transport Authority for the same as for a short distance journey, Standard Size Buses cannot be operated.'

Regarding requirement of sheds at Bus stops in Dwarka, your grievance is being forwarded to the concerned officer with the request to look into the matter and take action as deemed fit.

Sir,

It is informed that provision of direct bus link to every part of the city with a direct bus service at present is not feasible due to operational constraints. Changes over points have been established from where a commuter can make use of change over facility as per their convenience for going to their desired destination.

The services of routes RL-77Extra, RL-77A, RL-79, RL-75 and various Ltd and Spl. trip operating from Dwarka from different Sectors and the services of route 764 coming from behind running through Dwarka are giving the direct bus connection to various parts of the city centers. The area residents may avail the benefit of the existing services for going to their desired destination.

However, due consideration would be given to introduce new routes from Dwarka as suggested in the E-mail on the arrival of additional AC/Non AC Low \floor buses to the fleet of the Corporation. Till such time you are requested to kindly bear with us for the present.

Thanking you,

Yours faithfully,

Manager (Tr.) Sc. House
