Choose language	Transport Bus Buses are the most popular means of transport catering to about 60% of the total demand. The state-owned Delhi Transport Corporation (DTC) is a major bus service provider for the city, which operates not-only in Delhi, but also many inter-states routes. The mofussil buses operate around 34 depots, and the inter-state buses operate from the three Inter State Bus Terminals in Kashmere Gate, Sarai Kale Khan and Anand Vihar. DTC coordinates with Delhi Metro to connect commuters in areas surrounding the metro stations. The DTC now operates the world's largest fleet of environment-friendly CNG buses. While the buses in Delhi are very cheap, they have a mixed safety record and are often overcrowded. In 2007, only 750 of 4500 buses passed their safety inspections and many were taken off the road for repairs.
	Metro A world class metro system has been instituted in New Delhi. In order to meet the transport demand in Delhi, the State and Union government started the construction of a mass rapid transit system, including the Delhi Metro. As of 2007, the metro operates three lines with a total length of 65 km (40 miles) and 59 stations while several other lines are under construction. As of November, 2006: Line name Number Between stations Red Line 1 Shahdara - Rithala Yellow Line 2 Vishwa Vidyalaya - Central Secretariat Blue Line 3 Indraprastha - Dwarka Sub City
	Taxi and rickshaw Auto-rickshaws are popular in New Delhi, and are popularly known as scooters. They are usually coloured green and yellow and many run on CNG. Taxi-cabs are not as prevalent and tend to be more expensive. However, both private taxis and the state-permit taxis (which are black and yellow in color) are easily accessible. Private vehicles account for 30% of the total demand for transport. At 1922.32 km of road length per 100 km?, Delhi has one of the highest road densities in India. Delhi is well connected to other parts of India by five National Highways: NH 1, 2, 8, 10 and 24. Roads in New Delhi are maintained by MCD, NDMC, Delhi Cantonment Board, Public Works Department (PWD) and Delhi Development Authority.
