On the sidelines of the Hyderabad E Prix, the fourth race of the ABB FIA Formula E Championship to be hosted by the city on February 11, the state government flagged off three of its proposed six electric double-decker buses on Tuesday. The return of double-decker buses in the city has been a long pending demand from the public, especially on social media platforms.
These EV buses, according to the officials, will be predominantly plying around the race track covering Tank Bund, Necklace Road, Paradise and Nizam College stretch during the race week. After February 11, the buses are planned to be used along a heritage circuit to augment tourism in the city.
