The Inter-State Bus Terminal (ISBT) in Greater Noida, which will be similar to the one in Delhi, will connect several destinations across north India.
The proposed terminal will help hundreds of of daily wagers commute from different places, including Uttar Pradesh, Delhi, Rajasthan, Haryana, and Uttarakhand, The Times of India reported.
It is being developed by Integrated Industrial Township Greater Noida Limited (IITGNL).
The stations and the bus terminal will be built in a manner that will ensure swift transition between the mode of transport.
The proposed integrated industrial township, along with transport and logistics, will make Greater Noida a central industrial hub in the National Capital Region, the report cited officials as saying.
“Talks are on to float a tender for development of the transport hub,” Bhooshan told the daily, adding, “the projects are aimed at developing a sustainable and futuristic industrial township which will also boost investment.”
“The modalities of ISBT are still being worked out. But adequate parking space, passenger waiting area, space for ticketing, drinking water and restrooms, retail shops, canteen, etc are some of the proposed facilities at ISBT,” the report quoted an official as saying.
A developer will be hired to develop the project after a Detailed Project Report (DPR) is submitted by IITGNL, The Times of India reported.
