The Uttar Pradesh State Roadways Transport Corporation (UPSRTC) plans to upgrade its twin bus stations in Prayagraj, Civil Lines and Zero Road, at a cost of ₹320 crore. Private firms Omaxe Company and Delhi Infra Limited will handle the construction. The upgrades will include multi-level parking, air-conditioned waiting areas, and an electronic ticketing system. A shopping complex will also be built to enhance passenger convenience. Currently, about 1,000 buses operate daily from both stations. The improvements aim to increase capacity and improve services, potentially boosting revenue for the state-owned transport system.
