AI can optimise Bengaluru’s bus network, but governance remains a bigger challenge

Researchers say artificial‑intelligence models can improve Bengaluru’s bus scheduling and route planning, potentially reducing travel time and congestion. However, the city’s transport authority faces administrative hurdles, such as fragmented decision‑making and limited data sharing, that could limit the technology’s effectiveness. The study highlights that governance reforms are essential for AI‑driven solutions to succeed in 2024.
