Travel in Maharashtra and go anywhere across the state for just a one-time fee. This is a new scheme launched by the Government of Maharashtra in 2017. The scheme was initially started on limited routes but now it has increased to a number of routes. This facility will be available at every major stop and many minor stops. Now people do not need to buy separate tickets for each mode of transport.
Benefits of Universal Travel Pass in Maharashtra:
1. It will help reduce congestion on roads since people can easily commute to their destinations without any traffic hassles.
2. It will help save fuel and reduce pollution levels in the state which are currently very high due to the increasing number of vehicles plying on roads every day.
3. It will help reduce traffic jams as people can use public transport instead of private vehicles for their daily commute which leads to less congestion on roads during peak hours when everyone is going back home from work or school/college etc.,
4. The Universal Travel Pass will also make traveling easier for senior citizens and disabled persons as they no longer need to worry about finding space in crowded buses or trains where they have to struggle with standing all the time due to a lack of seats or even getting down at wrong stops due to poor visibility on board these public transport vehicles,
5. The Universal Travel Pass will also reduce the number of private vehicles on the road which will in turn help reduce pollution levels in cities and towns as fewer people will be driving cars,
6. This in turn will help save precious natural resources like oil, coal, and other fossil fuels which we use for powering vehicles today,
7. It will also reduce the burden on our environment due to reduced carbon emissions caused by burning these non-renewable energy sources
8. The Universal Travel Pass will also help reduce congestion on the roads which can be a major problem in big cities around the world where people are forced to travel long distances within a short time period,
9. This program will also encourage more people to use public transport instead of private vehicles which will in turn help reduce traffic jams and accidents that take place due to heavy traffic flow on city streets.
