Mumbai: Free Wi-Fi, mobile charging facility at BEST bus stops soon

Bus stops in the city are set to get an upgrade soon with the Brihanmumbai Electric Supply and Transport (BEST) planning to offer free Wi-Fi and mobile charging facilities at bus stops that have ample space, including the one at Haji Ali.

Lokesh Chandra, general manager of BEST, said the plan is part of a recent announcement made by Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde emphasising the need to beautify roads and footpaths in the city. “Since BEST stop shelters are also part of the city infrastructure, they too will be revamped to be more visually appealing,” he said.
