Overview
- MSRTC inaugurated the programme at Parel on World Environment Day, June 5, and began cleaning stations, buses and crew facilities on a four‑hour cycle.
- The corporation will deploy mechanised cleaning equipment at major terminals and run plastic segregation and recycling so collected bottles and bags are processed into durable products.
- MSRTC laid the foundation for nine electric‑bus chargers at Parel and says charging infrastructure will be rolled out across all 251 depots to support fleet electrification.
- A 10‑day enforcement drive running from June 5 to June 15 is active statewide to enforce a Bombay High Court‑directed 200‑metre no‑pickup/no‑parking zone around ST depots, with joint teams ordered to seize offending vehicles and file compliance reports.
- MSRTC officials say the combined measures are intended to improve passenger safety and station hygiene, reduce congestion around depots, and protect the corporation’s fare revenue while senior officers monitor implementation.
