Welcome back Sajha Yatayat!

Sajha Yatyat is the oldest transport service in Nepal which was established in 2018 BS. Since some years it has been out of operation but now it is going to start its service shortly with new plans, policies and strategies under new management. According the Sajha Yatayat management it will come in the operation in Falgun 2069 with 16 busses. The busses are 54- seater with two automatic doors controlled by the driver. They are Euro 3 emission standard busses. It was operated as inter-district transport and commuter in Kathmandu.  The same is to be followed after its revival. It was state owned popular and reliable form of transport system in Nepal.

Operation of Mass transit is the way out to solve traffic chaos of Kathmandu. In urban cities everyday traffic jams and in inter-district transportation the irregularities in service and fares are the main problem with transportation systems.  To control such irregularities the operation of state owned/controlled bus service is necessary.  The way out to solve traffic jams is the introduction of integrated bus transit as mass transit.  Sajha yatayat should be revived as integrated bus transit.  It should introduce buses with high-capacity, easy to board, comfortable to ride and quiet. One high-capacity bus can carry the same number of passengers as a few micro or mini buses. This will result in less number of vehicles on the roads, which makes the task of traffic management easier. An appropriate fare collection technology should be introduced instead of cash collection on board by conductor, which will ultimately ease the boarding and unboarding enabling passengers to use a single fare card or token system.  The fare collection systems need to be secure, efficient, and simple. A fixed travel time should be allocated and easy transfer and integrated interconnection are to be established. Walking distance between transferring points must be made as short as possible, with safe passageways.  The bus stations should be well-designed with large shelters and route information allowing people to board the buses quickly from a platform that is level with the bus floor. If these strategies are to be followed by Sajha Yatayat, there would be huge number of people shifting from private transport (motorcycle and cars) to Sajha, it would reduce the number of vehicles on the road making the traffic task easier. Proper operation of Sajha as mass transit will certainly reduce traffic jams of Kathmandu.

In the past Sajha was the first choice of the public for travelling. The same image should be reestablished through the execution with proper plans and polices. It should be guided by the vision and action. Whatever reasons were behind its shutdown, the new management has to analyze and learn lessons from them. In underdeveloped countries like Nepal political interference is everywhere. The management has to think about this circumstance and develop strategies to tackle with it before starting the service. Political interferences could not be the only reason to justify its shutdown because it was operating well and had good reputation among public.

Mass bus transit has been popular means of transport around the globe. The European cities have well developed integrated bus transit. Operation of bus transit is substantially cost-efficient in terms of operation and infrastructure investment and is flexible compared to rail; which has made bus transit very popular. Transmilinio in Bogota, the capital of Colombia and Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) of Curitiba, Brazil are very popular examples which play a large part in making cities a livable city. They solved the traffic chaos of the city through the implementation of integrated bus transit. Transmilinio was the idea of that time mayor Enrique Panalosa. He proved that one man can make the difference.

Bus system provides a versatile form of public transport with flexibility to serve various locations, it require just roadways. Since urban roads are already built and being widening, Sajha Yatayat doesn´t need extra investment in infrastructure for operation and could only focus on proper operation. The cost of travelling by sajha yatayat should be cheaper than travelling by motorcycles and cars. It should be reliable in terms of punctuality and route and safe to attract the people.  Allocation of proper bus stops is to be done.

It should also foresee the strategy to operate night bus service. Night bus services will decrease the dependency to the private vehicles.  The fare for such service could be higher than the normal prices.

Public transport has a greater capacity to move people than private vehicles in a given amount of road space. The promotion of public transport (mass bus transit) is a basic strategy to improve the transportation system and reduce congestion. If it is systematically developed and provides a quality of service that approximates the quality that a car driver is used to, there will be certainly be a drop in overall car usage. Therefore, sajha yatayat should be developed as mass transit and the public sector should promote public transport, which in turn will pay by reducing traffic congestion and better transportion system.
