At present, the Department operates its services on 211 Notified Routes and 517 Scheduled Services including the City/Pink Bus Services of Dimapur, Kohima, Mokokchung and Mon. However, of the 211 routes, the Department could operate only on 123 routes with a route length of 10728 KMs. with 218 Scheduled Services covering 20,288 KMs. daily which includes Inter-State Service connecting Imphal (Manipur) from Dimapur and Kohima.
The Department has established network of services connecting all the 12(Twelve) District Headquarters making access to the most interior areas/nook and corners of the state where road connectivity exists, providing basic passenger transport facility especially to the rural areas for benefit and economic uplift of the common man.
However, due to operation of the services with aged buses on most of the scheduled services, reliability of the services has declined in view of frequent suspension of the daily scheduled services for want of healthy buses coupled with bad road condition attracting wide-spread public complaints and criticisms in addition to revenue shortfall.
In order to facilitate urban transportation, the Department has introduced City Bus services at Mon District HQ in addition to the Dimapur and Mokokchung City Bus Services, to encourage seamless mass transportation systems in Cities towards easing congestion, pollution and economy.
