Lucknow (Uttar Pradesh) [India], May 8 (HBTV): Acting on the directives of Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, the Uttar Pradesh State Road Transport Corporation (UPSRTC) is set to launch a new bus service connecting Jewar Airport to Greater Noida's Pari Chowk, aimed at boosting public transportation in the Yamuna Expressway Industrial Development Authority (YEIDA) region, a press release said.
This initiative is part of a broader plan to strengthen connectivity and accelerate development in the rapidly expanding area.
Under CM Yogi's guidance, three new bus routes have been identified in the YEIDA region. Among them, the 42-kilometre stretch between Jewar Airport and Pari Chowk is considered the most significant. This route will benefit both local residents and travellers using the upcoming international airport, enhancing ease of travel to and from Greater Noida.
Although a limited bus service between Jewar Airport and Pari Chowk has been operational since 2023, the newly announced expansion is expected to offer more comprehensive coverage and improved frequency.
In addition to the Jewar-Greater Noida route, two more bus routes have been finalised. One will provide bus service from Botanical Garden to Kulesara and Bhangel via Sectors 20 and 21 of Noida.
The second route will connect YEIDA’s regional office to Dankaur Chowk, Sector 17, and Bhangel, covering a distance of 51 kilometres.
These routes will serve residents of Rabupura, Noida Sectors 17, 20, 21, and 26, as well as students of Gautam Buddha University and commuters travelling to key locations such as Pari Chowk, the District Magistrate's office, Jagat Farm, Surajpur, Kulesara, and Bhangel village.
The YEIDA region is witnessing rapid development in terms of industrial units and residential projects, leading to increased demand for efficient public transportation. In this context, the upcoming bus services, especially the Jewar-Pari Chowk route, mark a significant step toward fulfilling mobility needs and fostering regional growth.
In the future, there are plans to start an electric bus service from Delhi to Jewar Airport. Along with this, two other new bus routes will offer additional transport options for people in the area. Expanding transport services in the Yamuna Development Authority region is a forward-looking step that will play an important role in the overall development of the region.
