Transport in Koderma
Koderma Railway Station is one of the most important junctions of Jharkhand and therefore is the most important public transportation as far as connectivity is concerned. It directly connects Koderma to important cities like Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata, Ahmedabad, Indore, Bhopal, Gwalior, Jabalpur, Jaipur, Nagpur, Pune, Guwahati and many more cities. By connecting Koderma to so many important cities directly, Koderma Railway Station is in a way lifeline for the commuters here.As for local transportation is concerned, then auto rickshaws are the most sought after transportation here. In fact barring traditional hand rickshaws, they don’t face any competition from anyone and therefore enjoy huge monopoly here. There concentration, however, is more in Koderma city and few developed towns adjoining it. In deep interiors number of auto rickshaws is fairly less, but their absence is somewhat compensated by six seater auto rickshaws.

In last one decade Banking services have picked up in Koderma District at phenomenal pace. As a result today Koderma is home to some of the biggest and trusted banks from Indian banking world. This includes State Bank of India, Axis Bank, Canara Bank, Bank of India etc. Besides, number of non scheduled banks and cooperative banks has also increased considerably in last one decade.

Postal Services in Koderma
Traditional postal service is still the most preferred postal service here. Mainly because private courier companies still haven’t made deep inroads in Koderma District. The very few courier companies that are there are mostly located in Koderma city. So dependency on traditional post service is more because of lack of competition and less because of its efficiency. Postal service’s monopoly, however, can be challenged if in coming years more private courier companies come up and transform this region into profitable market.Post Office: Karma

Petrol Pumps and Gas Agencies in Koderma
While demand for petrol and diesel is obviously high even in this part of Jharkhand, but demand for LPG gas is also increasing with passing years. People no longer feel comfortable for using firewood and cow dung to cook their food. Demand for LPG gas is decently high and there are obviously quite a few gas agencies to cater to this demand. As for presence of petrol pumps is concerned, then owing to huge demand for petrol and diesel they obviously have significant presence here.Asnabad Service Station

Telecom Services in Koderma
Koderma hasn’t remained untouched by mobile revolution that swept whole of India during last one decade. As a result today mobile connectivity is not just increasing, but imploding in Koderma. Top mobile service providing companies are obviously the main architect and driver behind this revolution. Airtel, Reliance, Aircel, Vodafone, BSNL and few other top mobile service providers are providing their services here. And as for internet services are concerned, then Koderma is catching up fast even on this front. The new age 3G and 2G services have made deep inroads in capital city koderma town and its adjoining towns. The internet service presence, however, is immensely minimal in deep interiors of the district.From all the above information it can be concluded that while many utility services are adequately fulfilling the required demands of citizens, but few utility services are miserably failing in doing so. Government is trying its level best to upgrade the existing services and is working in this direction further.
