Bus Stand, Depalpur

in hive-180106 •  5 days ago 

Travelling is part of our daily life and so on the bus bay or bus stands from where the travelling is started with the help of the transport to different possible routes. Today I am sharing Depalpur bus stand with you.

Depalpur is an ancient city and similarly the bus stand. This is a public bus stand. It was built by the government for the ease of the transportation. It is a little far from the center of the city to avoid traffic jam problems. Itis connect with the main Kasur road and Okara road.

Different Terminals

There are different terminals in this bus stand. Each terminal is specific according to the location. The most busiest terminal is Lahore terminal and Basirpur terminal. From the Basirpur terminal each bus departs after around 10-15 minutes. Due to a lot of passengers the bus is filled within this timeframe and then the bus departs. When it is the departure time for the bus it cannot stay there anymore because the next bus's stand time starts.

From this bus stand we can travel anywhere near or far. From this terminal the longest route is Depalpur to Karachi. Similarly we can travel Okara, Sahiwal, Pakpattan, Faisalabad, Lahore, Multan and other big cities. It looks always busy and full with the passengers and vehicles. It is especially stand for the buses and the vans are not included here but some private APVs.

Offices

These are the some offices of the Depalpur bus stand. Each transport company has an office here. If someone wants to get information about the travelling then he can visit the relevant traveling agency office and get detailed information. If someone wants to book complete for the private tour then they can head towards the travelling agency office. The manager or the owner remains in the office. If is there any dispute while travelling then this is also solved by the owners in the offices.

Mini Stand to Book Air Conditioned APVs

At the end and back of the bus stand there is a mini stand to book APVs. We can book air conditioned vehicles from this mini stand. The booking charges depend upon the distance and the situation of the road. The drivers are trusted and they give wonderful services to the passengers. Many people book vehicles for their weddings as well.

Waiting/Rest Area

This is the rest area of the bus stand. It is also made by the government and it is free to use. The passengers who want to wait for the arrival of any specific transport or want to eat for their families then they can use this area without any cost or restrictions.

Chairs and Washrooms

These are the dedicated chairs in the rest area or waiting area for the travellers. Instead of standing here and there the travellers can sit here and take rest or wait for anyone. Another wonderful facility of this bus stand is that in the waiting area there washrooms as well. For the gents and ladies separate washrooms are available. The another interesting thing is that the washrooms are free to use. The maintenance of the washrooms is done by the bus stand management.

Mosque

The passengers travel and they look for a mosque or a place to offer their prayers. This bus stand has covered this need as well. At the end of the bus stand there is a big mosque as well. So the passengers can easily fulfill their prayers in the mosque. There is a proper setup for the ablution and in the mosque there are also dedicated washrooms. The drivers, conductors, and the passengers use this mosque to fulfil their duties of offering prayer.

Different Food Stalls

Food points are the essential part of each bus stand because the passengers need to buy eating things to cope with the untimely hunger pangs. This bus stand has many stalls. There are cold drink corners, fast food stalls, fresh juice stalls and more. The sellers also visit the buses so that if anyone is in hurry and do not have enough time to visit the stalls then the passenger can buy things from those visiting sellers.

Fare List

If we talk about the fare prices the fares are reasonable. The management has recommended to attach the fare list on the front screen of the bus so that transparency can be ensured. Anyone can see the fare list. I have attached the picture of the fare list. In this fare list the fare is visible according to the route. They have also mentioned the old fares and new fares. It can be seen that with the decrease in the price of the fuel the fare prices has also decreased.
