The gonna be hot number for Kochi Double-decker from KSRTC for Kochi Gallans,What more can we ask for? The KSRTC itself is coming up with solutions for traffic jams in the city. This time, with a damn crazy idea, the introduction of double deckers!!! Yes, you heard it right. KSRTC is gonna start double-decker service in the city, very soon. The bus have arrived at Aluva yard, which was brought riding all the way from Mumbai. The service is expected to begin this month! The service has multi-dimension advantages. For regular commuters, its gonna be a solution for traffic jams. For tourists, families, kids and even for the grown ups, its gonna be a ride of fun. Currently, there are double decker services in Mumbai and this Gallan has traveled many a times in it. Believe me, its fun.Since the KSRTC have brought the bus from Mumbai BEST, its structure should be similar to Mumbai ones. There will be 31 seats in the lower deck and 42 on the upper. For safety reasons, passengers would not be allowed to stand on the upper deck. Lets see if thats gonna work out. The service will be initially rolled along the suburbs and the national highway. It will take some time to extend to the other parts as narrow roads, tree branches and power lines are matters of concern. Extra fare? No way. The fares would remain the same as that of the ordinary city bus services.
