A month before BRT was opened for Public after delays – I was asked by an Aaj Tak reporter to research on BRT – I told him to just wait for one hour. I went around BRT in auto Memorized all the Bottlenecks and pin pointed all the Major Defects which was made in to ‘BRT Ka Kanta’, two months later Walter Hook agreed with all the comments I made at a public hearing and through a blog also.
Not just that Motor Vehicles registration has increased by 50% but also the space allocated for Buses & Motorized Vehicles reduced by 50%. Number of Buses has declined.
Earlier there ‘Three Bus Lanes, Two Platforms and Two By Two Motor Vehicle Lanes’ adding up to nearly 9 Lanes. In addition Two Wheelers were using Cycle Lanes & Pedestrian Walkways.
This effectively means there were 11-12 Lanes Space in Use Yet There Was Acute Congestion and Average Speed reduced to 12 kmph at peak times. It Shall Be Total LOCK DOWN after this BRT is implemented. [Pictures in attachment]
1. It is Horrendous There Shall Be Retail Shops Under and Around BRT subways.
2. Obviously PATHWAYS Occupy more Right of Way than Highway.
3. See Saw 3×3 Highway has no U-Turn Arrangement which could avoid Traffic At Red Light Signals.
4. Heavy Commercial Vehicle Traffic & Overtakings – is Hazardous for Cars 2-Wheelers
