BMTC Volvo Vajra Monthly Bus Pass

Are you among countless commuters who are equally irritated of the mad traffic, ever going construction of under pass, over bridge on the outer ring road or want to be Eco friendly by using public Transport?

The best solution can be to take up BMTC Vajra service (Volvo AC Bus Service)

I have been using VAJRA BMTC Service past one month to commute to my office in Eco Space and i am delighted by using the service.

BMTC gives monthly pass for the calendar month ONLY and DAY PASS.

In UK i used to get Weekly pass, I can buy it any day and use it for 7 Days. It would be really helpful if BMTC could introduce Weekly Pass for those who would not be using the service for whole month as they may be going on vacation, however there is DAY PASS which can be availed.

It had been a pain to have the exact change and to face the wrath of the conductor every time i board the bus hence i switched to take Monthly pass which would save me from tendering the exact change to get the ticket.
