#Kolkata: WBTC has developed an app called ‘West Bengal Transport Corporation-Version 1.0’ to provide passengers with excursions on public transport and long-distance air-conditioned Volvo buses. Through which long-distance air-conditioned buses, special trams and boats can be booked. Even special bus service to visit the mandapa during Pujo or the opportunity to reserve a seat in the vessel to see the immersion in the Ganges will be available from the same app.
However, the tickets of all the buses of the State Transport Corporation that run on short distance routes every day cannot be deducted from the app. The facility will soon be available on Android and Apple phones, according to officials at the West Bengal Transport Corporation under the Transport Department. After downloading the app, the passenger has to register his name. Once the OTP and password process is complete, passengers will be able to book from the specific app.
Tickets can be booked through the Vessel app from February 10. This service will also be launched soon in the case of buses. So far 22 routes of long distance buses have been brought under it. Notable among them are Barasat-Digha, Karunamayi-Digha, Kolkata-Bolpur, Kolkata-Purulia, Barasat-Asansol, Kolkata-Durgapur-Asansol, Kolkata-Jayrambati, Kolkata-Mayapur etc. In addition, Puja Parikrama special bus can be booked through this app. In the case of trams, it will be effective in ‘Patrani’ at the moment. Kolkata Heritage River Cruise and Boat Library will be added to the app for the time being. The range of its apps will be further expanded over time.
Multiple measures have already been taken through the State Transport Corporation. An official of the company said that due to the presence of real time tracker, it will be easier to know when the bus is available at any stop in the same way as the bus is available at the specified time. Besides, it will be easy to know the time as it is known through the direction.
