University students in Bahrain could soon have easier and more affordable journeys to campus, following the Northern Municipal Council’s unanimous approval of a proposal to introduce dedicated bus routes and stops serving Bahrain University and Bahrain Polytechnic.
The proposal, spearheaded by councillors Abdulla Ashoor and Basem Abu Idrees, highlights the daily difficulties faced by students who depend on public transport to reach their campuses, with some forced to change several buses and spend hours travelling in each direction .
