# TGSRTC launches electric AC bus from Pragathi Nagar to Waverock 2026-08-19T12:49:24+00:00 | Governance | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet The Telangana State Road Transport Corporation (TGSRTC) has started a new electric AC bus service connecting Pragathi Nagar Kaman with Waverock via the Outer Ring Road (ORR). The 100 per cent electric buses will operate through Bachupally Cross Road, Mallampet ORR Exit 4A, Exit 1, Cyient Signal and ICICI Signal before reaching Waverock. Morning services from Pragathi Nagar Kaman are scheduled at 7.45 am, 8.15 am, 9.15 am and 10.15 am. Return services from Waverock will run in the evening at 4.15 pm, 5.15 pm and 6.45 pm. The new ORR service aims to benefit daily commuters travelling between residential areas in the north-western part of the city and the Waverock IT corridor. ## Indian Opinion Analysis The new route fills a gap in last-mile connectivity for the Waverock IT corridor, an area served mainly by private cabs and autorickshaws. TGSRTC's shift to electric buses aligns with the state's electric vehicle policy targets, though the fleet size remains small compared to the 10,000-plus diesel buses it operates. The real test will be frequency and punctuality: if these four morning and three evening trips prove insufficient, commuters may still rely on private transport. Watch for ridership data in the next quarter to gauge whether TGSRTC expands the service. ## Coverage - telanganatoday.com Straight news agency-style report of a bus service launch, no editorialising or political framing.
