Odisha Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik has laid the foundation stone of the Cuttack Netaji Bus Terminal

Built on 11,000 square meter area, the bus terminal will have 180 bus bays & parking space for 275 cars. With all the necessary facilities for the passengers & a sophisticated design, the terminal will also add to the elegance of the SilverCity.Paying tributes to the great patriot, CM said that Netaji was born & brought up in Cuttack. He learned his lessons of selfless service & struggle on this soil. To give him a fitting tribute Odisha will celebrate his 125th anniversary with much fanfare throughout the year,

The proposed bus terminal will be developed on 12-acre land belonging to Cuttack Municipal Corporation (CMC) at a cost of Rs 65 crore. The terminal will have motifs and paintings on Netaji’s life and his sacrifice for the country. The terminal will have a three-storeyed terminal building, regular bus bays to accommodate 180 buses at a time, space for local and Mo Bus service, bus repair workshop and special parking lot for four-wheelers and three-wheelers.

The terminal will have all amenities like ticket counters, restroom, cloakroom, food court, and e-vehicle charging station, rooftop rainwater harvesting, and solar panels. It will also have an integrated information management system for the benefit of passengers.

The idea behind setting up a new bus terminal was to accommodate an increasing number of buses and ensure modern facilities for passengers as the existing one in Badambadi area remains crowded all the time.
