The initiative aims to provide seamless last-mile connectivity between Central Secretariat and Seva Teerth Metro stations and key government offices in the Central Vista region, encouraging greater use of public transport among government officials and the general public while reducing dependence on private vehicles.

Under this initiative, Indian Oil Corporation Limited (IOCL) is providing two state-of-the-art hydrogen-fuelled buses to DMRC having a seating capacity of 35 passengers, equipped with GPS-based tracking and CCTV systems for real-time monitoring, safety, punctuality, and route adherence.

The shuttle service will operate on all working days (Monday to Friday, excluding Gazetted Holidays) during peak office hours as per following timings- Morning: 8:30 AM to 12:30 PM and Afternoon: 3:30 PM to 6:30 PM

With a frequency of one bus every 30 minutes, one bus will operate in the clockwise direction and the other in the anti-clockwise direction, covering important government offices and landmarks including Kartavya Bhawan, Vigyan Bhawan, Nirman Bhawan, Akbar Road, Baroda House, National Stadium, National Gallery of Modern Arts, India Gate, and Seva Teerth Metro Station.

Fare collection will be facilitated through National Common Mobility Card (NCMC), UPI, and cash payment options, with affordable stage-wise ticket pricing of ₹10 and ₹15.

DMRC will oversee bus operations, conductors, ticketing, and passenger support, while IOCL will provide drivers and hydrogen fuel support.

This pioneering initiative underscores the Government of India’s commitment to green mobility, clean energy adoption, and sustainable public transport infrastructure. The project is expected to serve as a benchmark for future hydrogen-based transportation systems across the country.
