This novel service allows commuters to purchase a single ticket for a multi-modal journey. Imagine starting your day with an auto-picking you up at your doorstep, seamlessly transferring you to a bus stop or metro station, and continuing your journey on a bus or train—all under the convenience of a single ticket. This visionary initiative, spearheaded by the Delhi Transport Corporation (DTC), aims to simplify the daily struggle of navigating different modes of transportation.
The partnership between DTC and a travel app ensures that commuters no longer need to visit multiple platforms for bus tickets or cab bookings. The trial phase of the government’s “single-journey ticket” project, set to last for seven days, is underway. Officials anticipate gathering valuable user feedback during this period to iron out any technical glitches before the formal launch.
A Step-By-Step Guide For Users
1. Enter Your Journey Details
Begin by inputting your departure location (e.g., your home) and your destination, which could be a restaurant or a friend’s house.
2. Choose Your Mode Of Transport
Select your preferred mode of transportation—whether it’s a DTC bus, the metro, a direct cab, or an auto-rickshaw.
3. Consider Station Accessibility
If you opt for a DTC bus or the metro, you may need to consider the accessibility of the stations. If they’re not within walking distance, the app also allows you to seamlessly book a cab or an auto for the initial and final legs of your journey.
4. Pre-book Rides
Whether it’s a cab or an auto, the app allows you to pre-book your rides before leaving home. No more searching for transport options after reaching the last bus stop or metro station; your ride is already sorted.
Additional Notes For Users:
- You can book a cab from your home to the first metro station or bus stop and vice versa.
- If you’re opting for the metro, the app supports ticket purchases for up to six people.
- The beauty of this system lies in its ability to plan and pay for your entire journey before stepping out, eliminating the need to juggle between various transportation means and payment locations.
Delhi’s new single-ticket platform promises to revolutionise daily commuting, offering a hassle-free and integrated experience for the city’s dwellers.
