TRANSPORTATION

 

Local

Kanpur Mahanagar Bus Seva

The Kanpur city bus service is cheapest mean of transportation. However, it is not planned for most parts of the city and a few selected routes are having this facility.

Tempos

Three wheeler Tempos are the most used means of mass transport. Though a bit uncomfortable, they are still faster than the buses. Their fare is a non-negotiable fixed price between two points. The Tempo has capacity for 7 passengers (6 on two back seats and one in front with the driver) and one driver, but usually they carry 10--the driver, 8 on two back seats and 2 in front with the driver. Recently, CNG tempos are introduced in the city to combat pollution and Uniform is also introduced some day back.

Cycle Rickshaws 

These are a reliable transport medium, although a bit costlier and only meant for short distances.

Kanpur Metro 

Feasibility study of Kanpur Metro Project is under process. This project is expected to be completed by 2012. This however is a very unrealistic date as the study has been commissioned, but no work has been carried out. First the Lucknow project might be completed and then work on the Kanpur project may be started.
