The passenger load on buses operated by the KSRTC division in Mysuru is inching closer to 100%, thanks to ‘Shakti’ that was launched on June 11. From 60-65%, the load factor has gone up to 90-95% after the rollout of the free travel scheme for women.
KSRTC officials in Mysuru said they were expecting that the passenger load may even cross 100% and more once colleges across the district start in fullscale, increasing the travel of girl students.
