After 8 years, private buses will resume operating from Noida depot to these 10 villages, providing new facilities.

Starting Monday, the corporation will issue tenders for 10 routes. These will feature ordinary diesel and CNG buses operating in the district's rural areas—villages and towns outside the city.

The new model is different from the previous model; the operator will now have its own conductor, providing additional convenience. Previously, the operator had both a driver and a corporation conductor; now both will be private, paving the way for faster and more efficient service.

The Noida depot now operates buses to several cities, including Agra, Mathura, Haridwar, Aligarh, Meerut, Shikohabad, and Lucknow. Ordinary and air-conditioned buses are now operating on rural and main routes. 

Air-conditioned buses will continue to operate in major cities, but rural areas will be provided with a simple, affordable, and convenient service for everyday travel.
