Passengers traveling from Panchkula to Chandigarh Railway Station will soon get a cheaper travel option. Haryana Roadways will operate buses from the Panchkula bus stand directly to the station, helping commuters avoid expensive taxi and auto fares. This move will specifically benefit people coming from Panchkula, Pinjore, and Kalka.
What is the current status of the bus service
The bus stop on the Panchkula side of the Chandigarh Railway Station is already constructed. Sanjeev Kumar Chaudhary, the Station Superintendent, confirmed that the facility is ready. Some road construction work is currently underway and will be completed soon. Once the roads are ready, buses will start operating on this route.
Who is involved in this project
- Haryana Roadways: Will operate the buses for the public.
- RLDA: Constructed the bus stand facility as part of the station redevelopment.
