DTC partners with travel app Tummoc to introduce 'single-journey ticket'
The trial for the government's "single-journey ticket" project has commenced and will last for seven days, officials said
The Delhi Transport Corporation (DTC) has partnered with a travel app for ensuring that commuters in the national capital do not have to visit multiple sites to book bus tickets and cabs by bringing different modes of transport on one platform.
The trial for the government's "single-journey ticket" project has commenced and will last for seven days, officials said.
Delhi Transport minister Kailash Gahlot told PTI that the single-journey ticket will save users the time and energy while booking autos and cabs.
The DTC also posted about the commencement of the trial run for the project.
"Exciting News! DTC has collaborated with @tummoc4u to introduce digital DTC passes and the first-of-its-kind All-in-One Ticket! These new and exciting features are now LIVE for you to test and give feedback," the public transporter said in a post on X.
Announcing the initiatives, Tummoc also posted on the microblogging site, "We've launched some big features in #Delhi: 1 DTC bus passes 2 Delhi Metro Tickets 3? The revolutionary #AllInOne Ticket...all on Tummoc! Now LIVE for testing. Please try it & share feedback! Thank you for the guidance & support @TransportDelhi @dtchq_delhi @OfficialDMRC." As of December 2023, the Delhi government's fleet had 7,232 buses, including 4,391 operated by the DTC and 2,841 by the Delhi Integrated Multi-Modal Transit System (DIMTS).
The daily bus ridership in 2023 stood at 41 lakh.
