Mumbai, Nov. 4 -- Long waits at bus stops in the western suburbs have prompted BEST to add 48 electric buses to its fleet. The 12-metre-long, fully air-conditioned buses were inaugurated on Tuesday and will serve areas including Mira Road, Dahisar, Borivali, Kandivali and Malad. The buses will operate from the Dindoshi and Magathane depots. BEST officials said the additional services would improve frequency on select routes. Residents said they had sent several letters and emails to BEST over the past few months, seeking additional buses, extensions to existing routes and new services. "We had written several letters and sent emails as well. We are glad that BEST has introduced more buses," said Santy Shetty, resident of Lokhandwala in Kandivali and founder of We All Connect (wAc). A BEST official said the new buses could reduce waiting times to around eight to 10 minutes on select trunk routes connecting railway stations with residential societies and commercial areas....
