The bus usually ferries tourists on the iconic heritage route in south Mumbai
The heritage special bus from the Colaba depot of the Brihanmumbai Electric Supply & Transport Undertaking (BEST) became the first vehicle to use the Mumbai Trans Harbour Link (MTHL) after the route was flagged off by the chief minister and deputy chief minister on Wednesday evening.
The open-deck double-decker buses that offer tourists trips on the heritage route in south Mumbai have been painted in the original Bombay tram colour scheme of the 1930s, complete with an off-white band and old-style lettering. The bus, on the historic run, ferried workers and engineers who have been involved in the construction of the iconic bridge.
