Colour-coding of buses based on their routes, recently introduced in Pune, has created a lot of flutter among transport experts and activists in Mumbai, who shared their views on whether such a system should be replicated in the city. The Pune Mahanagar Parivahan Mahamandal Limited (PMPML) introduced the system on Thursday, following the colour-coding pattern used for Metro trains in London.

Speaking to mid-day, Rohit Dhende of Bus for Us Foundation, said, "Yes, it will work. If you compare the two cities, the bus transport system in Pune is not that disciplined and regulated. In Mumbai it is better organised and managed. If this system works well in Pune, there is a scope for it to work in Mumbai too."
