Pune, India – The Maharashtra State Road Transport Corporation (MSRTC) has launched a new Shivneri bus service connecting Swargate in Pune to Mantralaya (State Secretariat) in Mumbai, aimed at easing the commute for government and private employees.

Convenient Schedule for Commuters

  • Swargate to Mantralaya: Departs every Monday at 6 AM
  • Mantralaya to Swargate: Departs every Friday at 6:30 PM

Key Features of the Service

    • Enhanced Connectivity: The bus route includes travel via Atal Setu, connecting Navi Mumbai to Mumbai, which reduces travel distance and time.
  • Passenger Concessions:
    • Women and senior citizens (aged 65-75) receive a 50% discount on tickets.
    • Senior citizens above 75 years travel for free.
  • Booking Options: Tickets can be booked through the MSRTC portal or the mobile app.

Background and Demand

The new service caters to the significant demand from government employees who reside in Mumbai and commute to Pune for weekends. The positive response to the Pune-Dadar Shivneri route via Atal Setu prompted the extension of this service.

Additional Information

The initiative was driven by requests from Mantralaya staffers for a direct bus service from Swargate to Mantralaya. The introduction of the Hirkani bus service on this route further complements the transport options available to commuters.

Pramod Nehul, Divisional Controller at MSRTC, emphasized the importance of this service for employees working in and around Mantralaya, highlighting the convenience and benefits it offers.
