KARACHI: Another batch of 40 Green Line buses will reach Karachi tomorrow (Thursday).
Cargo ship Ocean carrying the buses will reach Karachi Port tomorrow at 11:40 in the morning. The previous month, 40 buses were initially inducted in the fleet.
On October 4, test run of the Green Line BRT began on the 23-km route (Surjani Town to Numaish Chowrangi) after the PTI-led federal government inaugurated its trial operation.
The test run would continue for at least one month before the launch of its commercial operation. It will open for the public at large in November. The Prime Minister will launch the BRT project.

The state-of-art underground bus terminal with a parking facility and the commercial mezzanine floor was also constructed at Numaish intersection.
The construction work on Phase-I of the project was started in 2016.
