Description
For transport within the city, buses and taxis are available throughout the day. The city has a very fast and efficient bus transport system, mainly dominated by private operators, known as Red Buses. The red buses offers a cheap, no-frills travel within the city, forming a major backbone of public transport. However the reckless driving and competitive tendency among red-buses have been heavily criticized by the public. Despite its mounting public criticism on reckless driving, the punctuality and reliability of services often silence the critics to a great extent. In 2010, the state public transport company, KSRTC stated city services due to frequent complaints against red buses, which has been praised for its efficient and controlled services. KSRTC operates two class of services; a basic no-frills service known as Thiru-Kochi which has same fare system as red-buses distinguishable with its blue-white livery and JNNURM funded transport services. The JNNURM transport services operated by KSRTC, offers a premium air-conditioned low-floor bus services known as Orange Buses and non-air conditioned premium buses known as Yellow Buses. Both the buses connects CBD areas of Kochi with nearby suburbs. At present, 630 intra-buses are authorized to operate inside the city. The city also caters nearly 2100 long distance private buses which includes 466 inter-city state buses.
