The operational scope of BMTC has been expanded from 65 km to 70 km. Under the expanded network, BMTC bus services are available to several major district and taluk centres around Bengaluru, including Kanakapura, Ramanagara, Channapatna, Magadi, Chikkaballapur and Malur.
To effectively manage the expanded operational area, BMTC has classified regions within 40 km of the city centre as the Limited Scope zone. Areas beyond 40 km, up to the extended operational limit, have been categorised as the Extended Scope zone.
The newly introduced Vistar Pass is designed to benefit passengers travelling within this expanded service area by providing a convenient travel option on BMTC’s long-distance routes.
