More bus routes eyed for Red Line station

Next month, the Department of Land Transport ( DLT) will propose four additional electric bus routes to serve Pathum Thani province’s State Railway of Thailand’s ( SRT ) Red Line Rangsit Station.

According&nbsp, to Transport Ministry official Krichanont Iyapunya, the DLT strategy comes after a government study revealed that the existing feed program, particularly public transportation and parking areas at Rangsit Station, was inadequate.

He claimed that private operators may operate the four further bus routes.

They cover Rangsit Circle, Rangsit- Thammasat University, Rangsit Campus, Rangsit- Krung Siam St Carlos Medical Centre, and Rangsit Khlong 7.

The DLT may post the schedule to the Pathum Thani Land Transport Office second quarter, according to Mr. Kritchanont, before passing it on to the government.

Mr. Kritchanont claimed that the SRT is working to increase Rangsit Station’s driving capacity from 100 to 300. It will also force for a car park tower.

The train’s feeding system is generally supported by get- up vehicles, which run from Rangsit- Charusorn, Rangsit- Nong Sua District, Rangsit- Chiang Rak Station, and Rangsit- Ongkharak District.

Higher coach use, he said, is due to the agency’s 20- baht level- level fare that covers 14 stations of the SRT Red Line and 16 stations of the MRT Purple Line.
