Dr. Ejaz Ahmad (Expert on public transportation): It is a wonderful and timely initiative of the incumbent government to expand the network of buses for public facilitation. At a time when there are increasing emissions by cars, the buses will contribute in bringing down the environmental pollution. As per a research, the percentage of omissions in the air is around 42%, which is quite high. Almost 100,000 vehicles enter into Islamabad on daily basis that contribute to air pollution and omissions. People commuting from Rawat, Barakahu, Taxila and other adjoining areas of Rawalpindi/Islamabad had no decent transport system which made their mobility difficult. The initiative of Blue Line Metro Bus Service will be helpful in providing this facility to public as well as overcoming the air pollution. The people living in peripheries will have easy access to Metro Bus service through this initiative.
