Tracking of the proximity of the shuttle is monitored by logging into the app and helps the user to decide when to wrap up her office work and reach the bus stop at the last minute to catch the shuttle thereby saving precious minutes of work time.

"There are currently 4 shuttle services operating in Cyberabad IT corridor and one in Rachakonda IT Corridor. More than 1600 users utilise the shuttle services in a day and at least 1200 users are present during the peak hours at any given day in the week. SCSC is constantly striving to improve the services and takes feedback from the users time and again which is overwhelmingly positive.

A dedicated cell for customer service on a toll-free number is available where the users reach out and get their queries resolved," said Krishna Yedula, General Secretary SCSC. SCSC is a not-for-profit organisation operating these shuttles for free, absorbing the cost burden and through sponsorship.

The SHE Shuttle has been extended to institutions for non-profit activities and Charity Purpose events related to women during the weekend when it is not in operation. Route Stops and Timings are available on the mobile app Reach Safe Download on www.reachsafe.com
