The Gujarat State Road Transport Corporation (GSRTC) has updated the list of bus services between Mehsana ST Bus Stand to Rajkot Central ST Stand on daily basis. Please check the updated timetable and timings of buses which include Express, Gurjarnagri, Sleeper and Volvo AC Services between both the cities.

We have also covered the list of bus stoppages and stations enroute that passengers can track for boarding purposes. More details have been covered in subsequent sections.
Important notice regarding the recent surge in pandemic numbers across the state has been disturbing and therefore strict measures have been announced. According to the notification by Gujarat Government, there will be no bus services post midnight 12 AM till morning 6 AM to reduce the after effects. Therefore it is advised to plan your journey accordingly to travel.
If you are travelling towards Rajkot, then you will have to go via Gandhinagar and Ahmedabad in between and therefore the travel time in reaching Rajkot can go up if not planned properly. Ideally, you should be leaving early morning or afternoon time, so that you can bypass Ahmedabad and Gandhinagar easily without any traffic. During morning and evening hours, the rush can be huge.
It is advised to reach the bus station as early as 15 to 20 minutes, if you have booked tickets online in order to not miss your bus. Sometimes buses tend to reach the bus stop early by half an hour to 15 minutes, therefore you can expect them to leave beforehand of departure time. Just keep these small things in mind as you plan your travel.
