MTC Bus Service
Less no. of services during peak hours

I am staying in Pudupet. We do not get enough no. of services of bus no.23C to go to Adyar/Besant Nagar. During peak hours, i.e., from 8.00 a.m. to 9.00 a.m. and evening from 6.00 p.m. to 7.00 p.m. there is no enough no. of servicies. Often, this bus used to come both in the morning and in the evening in half an hour gap with heavy crowd. Some times, one day or two in a week, we used to see 4-5 buses going one by one without any gap around 5.45 p.m. in the evening, i.e., while we walking to the bus stand. Likewise, the bus 29L also has no particular timing in the evening. One day it used to come at 6.00 and the other day it will arrive at 6.30/6.45. Most of the days in the evening if we wait for a bus for about 1 or 2 hours, we could not see this bus at all. There is one more bus 23V. Really we do not know when this bus ply from Ayanavaram to Velachery. We can never see this bus during peak hours.

To-day, i.e, on 18.2. I came to the Pudupet bus stand at 8.25 a.m. One 23C delux with less crowd passed without stopping at the Pudupet bus stand though we waived our hands to stop. The driver knows very well that there may not be any bus for another 15 or 20 minutes. And there is no service of 23C upto 8.50 a.m. or beyond that, we do not know.

We humbly making a request to the concerned authorities, to do the needful to set right the above problems and let the public to get proper bus services.

The authorities may kindly consider whether the bus service for school children serve any purpose and why the service will not be extended atleast to ladies. We often used to see the buses plying with 5 or 10 children maximum, sometime without anybody.
