The Gujarat State Road Transport Corporation (GSRTC) has introduced three new electric buses connecting GIFT City with major transit points in Ahmedabad and Gandhinagar.

Currently, the buses are plying on three routes, namely Narol to GIFT City, Shantipura-SG Highway to GIFT City, and Gandhinagar Pathikashram to GIFT City. The three routes have been worked out considering the growing demand for public transportation, office timings, and ensuring better connectivity with major transit points in Ahmedabad and Gandhinagar.

GIFT City signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Chartered Speed for electric vehicle (EV) transportation services last year and four electric buses are already plying on various routes connecting Ahmedabad and Gandhinagar with GIFT City.

The latest addition of electric buses being operated by GSRTC on the three routes will provide ease of connectivity at an affordable cost for over 20,000 people working in GIFT City.
