With more digital buses being introduced, the BEST undertaking is strengthening its digital footprint in the city by introducing common ticketing options for it and the Metro. After the success of Chalo, the BEST undertaking is set to launch the Paytm transit card, which will work on Metro lines and BEST buses, in March.
The new electric AC double decker bus was launched on Tuesday and is 100 per cent digital with no paper tickets issued onboard. The increase of these digital options will be a boon to commuters. “The PayTM transit card is in final stages of preparations and will be launched in March,” BEST General Manager Lokesh Chandra said.
