MUMBAI : There has been a decline in number of breakdowns in Brihanmumbai Electric Supply and Transport (BEST) buses in Mumbai in recent months. BEST general manager Om Prakash Gupta said that the number of breakdowns had gone down by more than 25 %.
He said that in the past there were at least 120 buses witnessing breakdowns on roads and at the depots daily. "But in recent months, this figure has come down to 90 and we expect it to decline further to just 60 breakdowns a day. We are improving our services by maintaining the buses properly and ensuring that it has good quality spare parts,'' he stated. MNS member Kedar Hombalkar pointed out that the breakdowns were maximum in AC Cerita buses.
"These 272 AC buses are a huge liability for the BEST fleet. They suffer maximum breakdowns and we end up spending lakhs of rupees on spare parts replacement and repairs,'' he said. He suggested that the existing AC buses would soon be phased out and replaced with good Volvo AC buses which run on CNG. Gupta said there were plans to procure new buses for the fleet. "We are phasing out old buses and the AC buses will also be phased out in a few years. We are considering purchasing new buses depending on the logistics and demand from passengers,'' he added.
