Most buses are government-owned and operated by DTC (Delhi Transport Corporation) and are either red (with air conditioning) or green (without air conditioning). Bus routes are not correctly displayed at bus stops, so best to check directions online or ask a person.

Auto -
Autorickshaws are cheaper than taxis and are a quick/cheap way to get around the city. An auto rickshaw, or motor vehicle as it is commonly known, is said to charge 25 rupees for the first kilometer and 8 rupees thereafter. However, in some cases, drivers refuse to drive due to meter readings and tend to overcharge.

Rickshaw -
Bicycle rickshaws are great for destinations that are too long to walk and too short for auto rickshaws or taxis. Cycle rickshaws do not have meters, so it is a good idea to decide on the fare before boarding.
