Vyttila Mobility Hub is an integrated transit terminal in the city of Kochi.[1] It is designed as a converging point of various forms of public transportation, such as local and long-distance buses, metro rail and inland water transport. It is planned over an area of 37 acres (150,000 m2) in Vyttila, making it one of the largest bus termini in India.
The foundation stone for Mobility Hub in Vytilla was laid by the Chief Minister of Kerala V. S. Achuthanandan on 7 June 2010.[2] Construction of the first phase, consisting of the terminal for long-distance buses and the basic amenities, started in December 2010;[3] the first phase was opened on 26 February 2011.[4][5] When fully implemented, it will have facilities to integrate all modes of public transportation, as well as for shopping, entertainment and hospitality.
