ITANAGAR, Mar 19: To the delight of people of Dambuk, the much awaited APSTS bus service between Dambuk to Roing under Lower Dibang Valley was flagged off by Dambuk MLA Gum Tayeng on Monday.

The APSTS started its maiden journey from Dambuk market in presence of LDV DC Mitali Namchoom, ADC Atul Tayeng, APSTS General Manager Abu Tayeng, government officials, PRI leaders, Gaon Burahs and public of Dambuk.     

The bus service has come as a great relief to the people of Dambuk in their travel to Roing and back. Reportedly private vehicle operators charge Rs. 250 for a mere 35kms distance to Roing. The APSTS bus fare has been fixed at Rs. 60 for the same distance.

The completion of the bridge over Dibang river has brought in all weather road connectivity to Dambuk subdivision. Earlier the sub-division remained cut off during monsoon with the rise of water levels in the rivers surrounding it.
