[In-Person] India, November 10, Public Transport Photo Walk & Maps Check

Hello everyone,

November 10 is World Public Transport Day, and I want to celebrate it the Local Guides way — by going out and checking how well our own city’s public transport is mapped.

So I am hosting a small in-person meet-up in Saharanpur, and anyone nearby is welcome to join.

We will start at Saharanpur railway station and then walk to the bus stand. Together we will check what Google Maps says about these places and what is actually true on the ground — the entrance pin, timings, photos, and the small things travellers search for first: Is there a wheelchair-friendly entrance? Ramps? Clean toilets? Drinking water? A proper waiting area?

Wherever the map is wrong or incomplete, we will fix it on the spot with honest edits, photos, and answers — only what we actually see there ourselves.

This is my second meet-up (my first one was a virtual accessibility check), and first-timers are most welcome. No experience needed, just bring your phone and a water bottle. It is free, and we will finish with a group photo and chai.

If you are joining, please reply below so I know how many of us to expect. See you at the station gate at 11 AM!

Excellent idea for a photo walk @Ayaanali My best wishes for this meet-up

Thank you so much @TravellerG and @Ssiddharth2000 for your kind wishes — it really means a lot. This is my first in-person meet-up as a host here in Saharanpur, so all this encouragement really helps. If anyone is around Saharanpur on 10 November, please do join us — we start at the station main gate at 11 AM!
