Chennai gets first 130 AC electric buses in new phase

News Today and Times of India reported that Chief Minister Vijay launched 130 new air-conditioned electric buses in Chennai as part of a wider plan for 750 low-floor AC electric buses. News Today placed the 130-bus batch at Rs 234.50 crore and said the vehicles would operate from depots including Alandur, Perambur, Avadi, Central, Padiyanallur, KK Nagar, and Ayyappanthangal. TVK Tracker records this as transport implementation evidence because it moves the earlier AC-bus policy signal into a visible fleet launch. The remaining checks are route lists, frequency, fare treatment, accessibility, depot charging readiness, operating costs, reliability data, and whether non-AC affordable coverage is protected.

Tracker Note

The item has a public implementation signal, but the final outcome still depends on official orders, budgets, court records, department data, or later reporting.
