Mapusa bus stand within 3 years, promises Transport Minister

Is the assurance given in the house Transport Minister Mauvin Godinho said that the long pending demand of Mapusa Bus stand would be an reality in 3 years. The house on Friday discussed the starting and construction of the Mapusa Bus stand. The newly elected Mapusa MLA Joshua D' Souza wanted the foundation stone of the bus stand in October to be laid on October 4th.

Mapusa Bus stand is the hub that connects North Goa. It connects areas like Pernem, Bicholim, Sankhali and the Coastal belts. The new bus stand was supposed to start many years back. Mud was even dumped at the proposed site. The non construction of the bus stand has resulted in traffic congestion on the streets of the town, and dirty, mucky roads - a nuisance and inconvenience to people.
