Ludhiana Bus Rapid Transit System

Ludhiana BRTS was a bus rapid transit system proposed for the city of Ludhiana in Punjab, India.[2] It was to be 48 km in length, [3] and the project was approved on 22 September 2013.[4] However, the plan was scrapped due to lack of funds by the centre and only funds were raised for the Amritsar BRTS.
