摘要：	The new mobility project aimed at implementing the transit system for BMS College of Engineering, Bengaluru. The College has the population of 10000 of students and staff. The college has been planning to implement bus transit system to college students and staff. For this reason a survey was conducted in the college to know how many are ready to use the bus system. The survey was conducted in two stages. After getting the majority of results as 'YES' in the preliminary survey, a detailed questionnaire survey wasdone. The survey forms were sent to the email-ids of Students and Staff and waited for fifteen days to receive the data. A personal interview survey was also conducted for Technical Staff, followed by data grouping of response data. The majority of Students, Teaching Staff and Technical Staff wanted a bus facility from home to College and College to their homes. So, a dedicated bus facility could be provided. The objectives were, finding the optimal and safest route for College buses, scheduling the timing for buses, and estimating the number of buses required and their plan for parking and maintenance facility for buses. About 71 percent staff and students are willing to shift from current mode they are using to bus service. A radial distance of 24 kilometer was covered in route planning. Based on the analysis, 8 big buses and small 8 buses are required. Bus fare is calculated based on ranges in kilometer. For example , for the range of 0 to 4 Kilometer assigned fare is Rs 4000.The main theme of the paper is to calculate carbon footprint. Analysing the carbon emission for each person was very important, as it would account for the part played by each person in producing carbon. So, the estimation of carbon emission per person was necessary. While estimating the amount of carbon emission per person, the occupancy of buses was assumed to be 70 and the occupancy of other modes was assumed to be one person. It is found that Public Transport buses were the least carbon releasing vehicles (0.017 kg per person) followed by rental vehicles (0.310 kg per person), auto (0.554 kg per person), two-wheelers (0.857 kg per person) and cars (petrol = 1.020 kg per person, diesel = 1.126 kg per person).
