Soon, AC lounge for state Roadways’ Volvo service users

GURGAON: Haryana Roadways will soon create an air-conditioned waiting lounge for its Volvo bus service in Sector 29. With this, the bus service would be shifted from old Gurgaon bus stand .Haryana roadways general manager Yashendra Singh said: “The project is in planning stage. But soon we will come out with the details.
The present location lacks basic facilities for commuters.The waiting lounge will have good seating arrangement with water coolers and LCD TVs.”Commuters have welcomed the new plan. Rajesh Kumar, a Palam Vihar resident, said: “One spends a lot of money in availing Volvo bus service. The department should provide facilities accordingly. Sector 29 is a prime location and passengers can reach there easily.”Singh informed that there are 16 Volvo buses in Gurgaon fleet. The luxury buses are plying to destinations like Chandigarh, Agra and Haridwar at present. While the bus service to Katra was suspended about a fortnight back, the service to Jaipur is yet to take off. The Jaipur Bus Terminal Authority has not yet allotted space for these buses, leading to delay.
