Pithoragarh
Pithoragarh depot is facing a widening gap between tyre requirements and supply, delayed payments and salary concerns. Officials say tyres and other materials are supplied regularly, but buses continue to remain off the road, while several routes and bus stations face operational difficulties because of shortages and maintenance problems.
Nainital
Tourist demand is surging across the Corbett region and Nainital ahead of the weekend. All Corbett Tiger Reserve zones are booked for the next 3 days, while hotels and resorts in Ramnagar report strong advance reservations. The Tallital bus station will also increase services to manage heavier passenger demand, especially on the Nainital–Haldwani route.
Pithoragarh
Employees at Uttarakhand Roadways’ Pithoragarh depot have reportedly gone without salary for 3 months, while shortages of tyres and spare parts have left several buses in the workshop. Services to Haridwar, Dehradun and key rural routes, including Dharamghar and Pangla, are also affected, causing inconvenience for passengers.
