First CNG private buses to begin services in Ernakulam by October-end

KOCHI: Indicating a paradigm shift in the usage of clean energy, private bus owners are beginning to favour CNG-fitted vehicles. If all goes according to plan, the state’s first CNG-fitted private buses will begin services by the last week of October. Two private buses plying on the Aluva-Tripunithura route and the Vyttila-Vyttila circular route are set to be equipped with the latest technology at Metro Fuels, a company which handles retrofitting at Edappally.
