TRAIN & METRO TRAM BUS MINI BUS FERRY CAB CAR RICKSHAW MOTOR RICKSHAW BIKES
The first Indian under-ground Metro was built in Kolkata in 1984.
It has a very busy ti-mescedule, neverthe-less it’s always over-croweded and it runs everyday between 7 a.m and 10 p.m.
Since 1873 there are trams in Kolkata.
There are 208 Tram with 80 seats in each one. To compare it with Ba-sel, where there are 170 Trams and each one has 200 seats.
There are two passen-ger lines in Kolkata: MV AKbar and MV Nancow-ry run by the Shipping Corporation of India SCI.
They offer different stops in Kolkata and also have a direct con-nection from Kolkata to Chennai.
Completely yellow taxis could only be found in Kolkata and they are next to the rickshaw the very symbol of urban Kolkata.
Mostly used by tourist, although more expen-sive than rickshaw.
There are 28 car per 1000 inhabitants (High-est rate is in Delhi with 56 car per 1000 inhabit-ants).
As polution is be-coming an important issue, it is becoming important to run a car on CNG (Compressed Natural Gas).
Inofficially there are about 30’000 rickshaws in Kolkata. In the same time it’s also the only city where they are still in use. Used mostly by domes-tic people, for everyday business and shopping.
Very common mean of transport, almoust every famillly has one. And it still runs on fuel.
Used by tourist and lo-cals. as it is the easiest way to explore the city.
There are also bik-rick-shaws, whre you can see the whole familly on one of them.

Bus service has existed since 1992. They are not as common mean of transport as the metro, nor they are that popu-lar, mostly because they are so overcrowded which make it impos-sible to enter on in-between stops. Most signage are in Benja
Rented by companies, as a mean of transport for workers. They are usually rented over a long period and there-fore not in very good condition. Nevertheless they are faster, more reliabel and expensive than common buses.
