BEST revives Route No. 1 as A1 AC service after year-long break-off
Following a year long break-off, BEST revives Route No. 1 as A1 AC service.
The original Route No. 1 holds a unique place in Mumbai’s transport history. It was first introduced as Route A amidst the city’s tram era
Notably the route No. 1, once one of the city’s oldest and most recognisable bus lines, was discontinued in mid-2024
After nearly a year off the road, the Brihanmumbai Electric Supply and Transport (BEST) undertaking has reinstated its iconic Route No. 1 in a new avatar. Relaunched as A1, the route will operate air-conditioned buses between Electric House and Bandra Reclamation Bus Depot starting July 15.
BEST in a statement issued on Monday, said that the A1 service will run six departures in the morning and another six in the evening on all weekdays. The schedule has been designed to cater to peak-hour office travel.
