After several unsuccessful attempts to revive city bus services in the past decade, the corporation has acquired 20 buses that will not only serve Ulhasnagar but also neighbouring areas such as Ambernath, Badlapur, Kalyan, Navi Mumbai, and Bhiwandi. This will provide much-needed relief to the residents from paying exorbitant auto fares.

Ulhasnagar, with a population of 6 lakh and an area of 13 square kilometres, faces significant transport challenges. Lack of city bus services forces residents to rely on auto drivers who charge exorbitant fares, especially for short distances or the share autos which run between two particular points and sometimes ferry five people at a time.
