Our cities are drowning in congestion and pollution — but there’s a clear fix: more buses.
The Double the Bus campaign calls for exactly that: doubling our bus fleet so more people ride and fewer rely on private vehicles.
That means cleaner air, reduced emissions, and accessible public transport for all.
Where we stand now:
Right now, we have 3,407 buses on the road - that’s 715 more than last year. But this growth, while welcome, is still far from enough.
In Chennai, for instance, there are only 30–35 buses per 100,000 people. Way below the guideline of 60 buses per lakh set by experts. Doubling our bus fleet would ease the pressure on our roads and transform mobility for everyone.
