Public transport and last-mile connectivity

Notes

• TGSRTC provides dedicated charter bus services for PSUs and IT companies to facilitate employee commuting.
• Last-mile connectivity remains a significant challenge for employees who rely on charter services, as they often require separate city bus tickets for transit to pickup points.
• Proposed solution: Implementation of an integrated corporate-city bus pass to streamline travel and reduce costs for commuters.
• Urban infrastructure challenges include poor road maintenance, such as potholes and uneven surfaces, which impact school zones and public safety.
• Public health risks are exacerbated by inadequate urban sanitation, specifically persistent drainage and sewage overflow in residential and institutional areas.
• Administrative challenges in data collection/enumeration include the difficulty for citizens to provide historical records (e.g., from 2002) and the lack of basic working facilities for field staff.
• Welfare of field enumerators, particularly women, requires provision of basic amenities like shelter, seating, and secure working environments.
