Soon air-conditined bus service will begin between Bhubaneswar and Puri


By December an inter-city bus service between Bhubaneswar and Puri is set to begin - one can simply go online and book a hassle-free journey from the city to Puri in air-conditioned buses. The fare in a normal bus from Bhubaneswar to Puri is Rs 40 but, in the air-conditioned bus it will be Rs 100.
This service by Bhubaneswar-Puri Transport Service Limited will start online booking for its air-conditioned buses running between the state capital and Puri from December.
This has been reported in telegraphindia.com dated 14 October 2016.
Dream Team Sahara is the agency that runs the service and it has said that the online booking facility would be available on its website and passengers could select their seats from there. The air-conditioned buses had been introduced on the route to provide a viable and comfortable travel alternative to commuters, and the online booking system would help streamline the service as well as ensure reduction in the travel time.
The system now is that passengers have to wait for the air-conditioned buses to get filled before they depart from the Master Canteen bus station. A normal private bus takes around two hours to travel from Puri to Bhubaneswar and vice-versa but, the air-conditioned ones take around two-and-a-half hours for the same. The agency feels that this can be avoided through online booking.
