The Tirumala Titupati Devasthanams has resolved to allocate 2.86 acres of land to the Andhra Pradesh State Road Transport Corporation (APSRTC) for the establishment of an electric bus station at Tirumala.
The allotment comes in the wake of a request from the Vice-Chairman and Managing Director in the backdrop of the corporation’s decision to operate electric buses on both the Tirumala ghat roads and thereby contribute its part to the e-mobility initiative promoted by Central and State governments as well as the ‘Swachch Tirumala’ programme taken up by the TTD.
Though the corporation had requested for about seven acres of land, the TTD after multiple rounds of field inspections decided to allot 2.86 acres of land in the vicinity of Balaji Nagar abutting the Thiruvenkatapatham Road for setting-up of the electric bus station.
