Mumbaikars will now be able to commute long distances to offices and back home in style in the air-conditioned comfort of eco-friendly BEST buses launched by Bollywood actor Jackie Shroff here Sunday.

The BEST's new Green Bus Express Services from Borivli to Colaba and Borivli to Bandra-Kurla Complex, would help decongest choked roads and yet afford a comfortable and fast journey.

"I urge people to patronize these Green Bus Express services to reach their destinations faster, comfortably and cheaply, " said Jackie.

The brainchild of North Mumbai Congress MP Sanjay Nirupam, the CNG bus services were launched as part of his "North-Mumbai - Go Green" campaign.

"These services will reduce pollution, bring down traffic congestion and has the potential to keep a large number of private cars off the roads for the benefit of the people, " Nirupam said on the occasion.

The air-conditioned buses would offer on-board television entertainment, music, vend newspapers and magazines, drinking water, snacks and beverages and other such services for the 45-km journey from Borivli-Colaba and the 25-kms route from Borivli-Bandra Kurla Complex.

Depending on the public response, the services would be gradually extended to other routes in the city.
