Super fast buses of KSRTC that did trial run earlier this week in the Thiruvananthapuram-Kozhikode corridor, prior to the commencement of Bypass Rider services in the sector, covered the distance in 10 hours, as compared to the average running time of 12 hours when they called at all bus depots on NH 66, the CMD of KSRTC, Biju Prabhakar said.

The agency is expected to roll out their services which would skip depots located away from the NH and NH Bypasses in a week’s time, for which buses and also feeder buses from different towns are being given a distinctive colour.
