Shivneri buses are Volvo’s, One of the oldest Deluxe volvo buses operated by MSRTC since decades now. I remember some 15 years back, these volvo by MSRTC were one of the best and fewest giving convenient services between Mumbai and Pune. It was a time when the concept of Volvo operated by private operators was very less, Now their are number of private operators giving their services between this two neighbour city routes, But MSRTC is still the cheapest.

Bus Timings of Shivneri Volvo from Mumbai’s Dadar (East) location are very convenient, Its at every half hour time gap and first bus starts at 5:30 in Morning and Last bus around 11:30 to 00:00 Mid night. It is better to confirm with them for mid-night timings as they have not mentioned it. From Dadar there are 2 routes to reach pune (Via AUNDH and Via CHINCHWAD). Keep a note that only one bus is listed via Chinchwad route which is at 14:15 (i.e 2:15 Pm) from Mumbai, Dadar east. Other all routes from AUNDH. Similarly, all the buses coming from Pune city routes from AUNDH.
