At present, 3 bus shelters have been completed in Hubballi at Lamington Road, Court circle near Sai Baba temple, and Basaveshwara Nagar on Gokul Road.

Hubballi Dharwad is one of the fastest-growing cities in Karnataka. But the twin cities were deprived of basic bus shelters creating hassle to the daily commuters.
