One of the 50 newly imported buses procured by the Tamil Nadu State Transport Corporation in Pollachi on Saturday.

The city will receive 50 new buses by the end of September, an official from the Tamil Nadu State Transport Corporation (TNSTC) confirmed here on Saturday.

Painted in bright red, these new buses will replace the semi low floor (SLF) buses currently plying on the roads.

Out of 50, a total of 20 buses have already arrived at Pollachi, the official said.

The buses have been upgraded to meet the Bharat Stage (BS) – VI emission standards as mandated by the Supreme Court of India. The buses will also have air suspension systems.

“All these buses will be equivalent to private buses in terms of quality,” according to the official.

The routes, fixing of number plates and other necessary approvals from the government are yet to be finalised, the official said.
