Last week, the online bus ticketing service redBus established a collaboration with the Uttar Pradesh State Road Transport Corporation (UPSRTC) to offer online tickets. With the help of this alliance, travellers will have more 24-hour options for purchasing bus tickets on routes within Uttar Pradesh as well as those that depart from the state and travel to other states like Rajasthan, Delhi, Uttarakhand, and Bihar, according to a statement from redBus.
Over 11,200 bus routes are served by 1,50,000 seats on more than 35,000 daily journeys by the UPSRTC.
