27. Visual Aspects
The approach to the bus
terminus from the Wazirabad
road.There is a marked
absence of good signages
,though it is mentioned that
this is the entrance for buses
only, two wheelers also enter
the premises at times due to
confusion.
28. Due to lack of proper Auto
stands, autorickshaws are
sometimes parked near
entrance causing
hindrance to traffic flow
and pedestrian movement,
which is not visually
appealing.
29. Due to lack of access to
daylight ,the waiting hall
remains dark even in the
daytime. Though the
space is huge, the visual
appeal is lacking.
30. Positive aspects

,which makes the terminus easier to approach by
road.

access has become easy with reduced traffic jams.
• Different circulation spaces for diff. type of vehicles.

of seating with proper display to navigate the

floors.

creates an unwelcoming environment.
• Signage problems-The lack of proper signage is a
noticeable & negative aspect of this ISBT.Being the
oldest ISBT in Delhi, there should be proper signage.

while boarding the buses to longer destinations.
