The Capital Mass Transit Authority (CMTA) in Islamabad has made significant changes to increase the frequency of electric bus services on three key routes, addressing growing passenger demand by reducing waiting times. The new headways took effect on September 3, 2026. On FR-08B, the bus interval between Khanna Pul and Nilore has been shortened from 15 minutes to 12 minutes, improving access for riders along this corridor.
Similarly, the time between buses on FR-09 between Khanna Pul and Golra Mor has been reduced from 15 minutes to 12 minutes, and FR-14 between Barakahu and Mandi Mor will now operate with buses every 12 minutes instead of every 15 minutes. These changes aim to provide commuters with more timely service and shorter wait times. CMTA explained that the adjustments are part of a service upgrade to better accommodate increased demand for public transport in the city.
The authority urged passengers to adjust their travel plans accordingly, with the revised timetable now in force.
