Kathmandu, June 2 : The Kathmandu Metropolitan City (KMC) has said that all vehicles operating outside of the Kathmandu Valley should be only operated from the New Buspark at Gongabu in Kathmandu.
Issuing a notice here today, the
KMC appraised all those concerned ones, especially the transport entrepreneurs,
about this new provision. The new provision is applicable for vehicles
operating outside the Valley that ply on short route and long route.
The provision aims to streamline
the traffic management system in the bus park area where issues of haphazard
parking, unsystematic uploading and unloading of passengers were rampant.
The ticket booking counter inside
the bus park, however, will be kept intact, it was said.
Furthermore, the KMC has also urged
the concerned sides to remove the ticket booking counter outside the bus park
effective from June 16. The KMC has urged all the stakeholders for
implementation of the new provision.
Also, those vehicles plying on the
long route and obtaining permit up to Banepa, Sankhu and Dhulikhel are barred
from stopping at stations from Kalanki to Jadibuti.
The KMC shall coordinate with the
Traffic Police to bring to book those disobeying the new notice, the KMC
warned.
