BMTC to Deploy Conductor‑less Mini Feeder Buses with Tap‑to‑Pay in Bangalore
Bangalore Metropolitan Transport Corporation (BMTC) announced a plan to introduce conductor‑less mini feeder buses equipped with a Tap‑to‑Pay digital payment system for metro commuters.
Bangalore Metropolitan Transport Corporation (BMTC) has unveiled a new scheme to launch conductor‑less mini feeder buses on city roads. The initiative aims to improve convenience for passengers transferring from the metro network.
The mini buses will be fitted with a digital ‘Tap‑to‑Pay’ system, encouraging cashless transactions and faster boarding. By removing conductors, BMTC expects to reduce operational costs and streamline fare collection.
The rollout is slated to begin shortly, with the first fleet expected to serve key metro corridors across Bangalore. The move aligns with the city's broader push for digital payments and enhanced public‑transport integration.
