APSRTC introduces hassle-free travel with new multi-city ticket system

Andhra Pradesh State Road Transport Corporation (APSRTC) has launched a new initiative called "multi-city ticket booking" to offer hassle-free travel to passengers covering long distances. Under this initiative, passengers can travel in two buses with a layover facility at one bus station by purchasing a multi-city ticket from the starting point of their journey. For instance, if a passenger is traveling from Srikakulam to Anantapur, they can take two RTC buses without any additional charges by using a multi-city ticket. Moreover, passengers can even take a break in the middle of their journey and resume the trip in another RTC bus using the same ticket. The minimum layover time at the changeover location is 2 hours, while the maximum is 22 hours. Initially launched on 137 routes, the APSRTC plans to expand the multi-city ticketing system to all routes in response to public demand. The facility is available from major urban centers, district administrative centers, as well as small towns like Bapatla, Tanuku, Paderu, Nuzvid, Machilpatnam, Kuppam, Punganuru, Prodduturu, Pulivendula, etc.
