The department said the buses will use environmentally friendly Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) and offer better quality services than many that are used now.

The buses will be punctual and continue to offer discounts for students, the elderly and people with disabilities. The bus workers will also be polite and professional, according to the department.

The trial run will last for three months. Feedback will be monitored regularly.
