Bhubaneswar launches campaign for cleaner public transport

Capital Region Urban Transport (CRUT) has launched a new initiative aimed at encouraging more people to use public transport in Bhubaneswar as part of efforts to promote cleaner and more sustainable urban mobility.

The programme focuses on improving commuter awareness, accessibility and the overall public transport experience while reducing dependence on private vehicles.

Authorities expect the initiative to contribute to lower traffic congestion and improved air quality, reported Times of India.

CRUT said strengthening public transport usage is essential for supporting the city’s long-term mobility needs as Bhubaneswar continues to grow.

The initiative also aligns with broader efforts to promote environmentally sustainable transport options.

Officials expect the campaign to improve public transport adoption while supporting a cleaner urban environment through increased use of buses and other mass transit services.
