Public Transport

TransPeshawar (or Zu Peshawar) bus rapid transit system was inaugurated in 2020. It consists of an east-west corridor with 32 stations along a dedicated bus lane and a network of feeder routes. Fares are collected via an automated ticketing system, intended for use on all city routes. A fast way to get around town on the cheap is by manoeuvrable auto-rickshaws. Public buses are usually overcrowded and rather inefficient.
