Now a days every city has expanded its city limit due to the increase in population. Especially metro cities like Chennai, Bangalore, Mumbai and Delhi. The newly developed areas doesn't have a proper public transport connectivity, even though it has it is in a regular timing interval and hardy in a far distance from our residence. In cities like Chennai traveling in public transport becomes very difficult during peak hours i.e the starting time of offices, colleges and schools the time around 8.30am to 10.30am.

Once I traveled in MTC bus during the peak hours and the one hour travel was my most troublesome travel. The path of travel was from LIC to Poonamalle. Insufficient bus service for the population is the reason for this hectic rush in public transports.
