HYDERABAD: Taking a cue from the Brihanmumbai Electric Supply and Transport Undertaking (BEST), Mumbai transport, the city region of APSRTC is now proposing to set-up telephone coin box in buses shortly.
Under a two-month pilot project, 60 city region buses, including ordinary and metro deluxe services would be installed with one telephone coin box in each bus.
Tata-Indicom, one of the leading telecommunications company would be providing the service by this month-end, said a senior official of APSRTC.
“The telecom companies initially did not evince interest in the proposal.
Now, Tata-Indicomm has come forward to it take up under a trial basis for two months,” he informed. The 60 buses would be provided with a telephone coin box behind the bus driver’s cabin.
