The Telangana State Road Transport Corporation (TGSRTC) initiated new night bus services in Hyderabad to address late-night demand from IT employees, hospitality workers, and travelers. The service, branded as ‘Third Shift’ buses, began operations on September 1, covering six major routes including corridors such as Secunderabad to Kondapur and Hayathnagar to Secunderabad.

In its first week of operation, the services recorded 9,286 passengers. Due to this initial response, the government is evaluating the possibility of expanding the service to additional corridors and potentially implementing a 24x7 round-the-clock transport system in the city.
