Karachi electric buses to be back on roads from Monday

KARACHI: The Karachi Electric Bus Service will resume operation from next week after a five-days suspension that led the passengers into difficulties.

The Electric vehicle was facing the threat of a complete shutdown as buses running on two of its three routes were suddenly suspended, leaving thousands of passengers stranded.

However, in a fresh development, it was informed on the social media page of people’s bus services that EV-3 (Malir Cantt to Numaish via Johar University Road) will resume its operations from Monday.

Earlier, EV-2 and EV-3 services were suspended because of the unavailability of charging and only one route was functional.
