Double-decker buses in Mumbai to be phased out by 2023
Mumbai's double-decker buses will be phased out by October 2023 as a result of shrinking space on city roads and high operating costs, a Brihanmumbai Electric Supply and Transport official has said. Currently, there are 120 double-decker buses in a fleet of over 3,330. The buses, which operate on seven routes across Mumbai, were first introduced in 1937.
