LTC Chairman Tasneem Noorani said an action plan had been devised for the provision of standardised and affordable transport to the public, and it would be implemented shortly.
He was presiding over a meeting here on Monday also attended by CFO J I Kim, GM Operations Asad Gillani, GM Enforcement SSP Fawaduddin Qureshi and GM Finance Adnan Mudassar.
Mr Noorani said in the new transport system the frequency of buses on urban routes would be ensured so that the commuters did not have to wait at stops.
He said that only buses in good condition would be al lowed to run on urban routes and the operators would have to obtain fitness certificates for their vehicles from motor vehicle examiner.
He said it would be ensured the buses should only stop at authorised points in the city. He said a large number of commuters were using buses on B9 route from Kahna to railway station under an LTC pilot project.
He said the formula regarding the provision of upfront and operational subsidy to the transporters would be announced within a couple of weeks.
SSP Fawaduddin Qureshi said the movement of buses from Kahna to Railway Station was being monitored through a modern tracking system. He said the provisions of Motor Vehicle Ordinance were also being executed effectively.
