In 2018-19, BMTC had a fleet size of 0.5 buses per 1000 population, which is lower than the India’s average of 1.2 buses per 1000 population. For Bangalore, BMTC would require a fleet size of 14952 buses in order for it to reach India’s average of 1.2 buses per 1000 population. According to Transforming India’s Mobility report by NITI Aayog38, India lags in terms of bus fleet per population as compared to other countries, and in order to increase modal share towards public transport, the fleet size needs to be significantly improved.https://twitter.com/bharathmp/status/1237253702479532036
