A BUS STAND
A bus stand is a place where a bus stops for the passengers to get down and to get on the bus. Inside a city area, bus stands are seen at different busy spots. School or college gates, market places, medical centres and the crossing points of two or more roads are the main spots for bus stands. Local buses generally do not maintain fixed bus stands. However, for intercity buses there are fixed bus stands on highways. A bus stand plays an important role in the field of communication. It is a centre to, regularize the - communication of buses or conveyance of the .passengers and goods. Passengers get down or get on from this spot. Thus, it has a regulatory effect upon the buses and the passengers. Though it creates problems; like traffic jam, our communication system would break down without it. A bus stand becomes busy mainly at peak hours when people come out for work and also when they are ready to go back home. When an overcrowded bus reaches the station, there rises a hue and cry. Pushing and shoving occur among the passengers. It looks like a mini battle field. In big bus stands, hawkers are seen to attract the people present there with their peculiar voice and sell their respective things. They sell newspapers, various items of foods, books etc. Nowadays, there are some bus stands where some rules and regulations are maintained. However, government and the authority concerned should be more aware so that a secured and comfortable journey can be, ensured with the better or improved service facilities of each bus.
