Promote public transport and breathe more fresh air

The proposal of rapid transit system is a revolutionary idea and it is in accordance of the need of the hour. When whole world are becoming conscious for environmental issue as threat of global warming, promotion of less polluting vehicle is a welcome proposal. In any city of India, two wheelers and private four wheelers are the major agents of polluting the air of cities. In such a situation, public transport should be encouraged and use of private vehicles should be discouraged. This could be possible by providing better public transport system which will attract more and more people.

Providing special lanes on road for buses are one of such measure which will make life of bus passengers better. During hot chilling days, life in bus during Jam becomes pathetic. Free movement of bus will provide comfort to common people. By introducing more buses with better facilities will attract more passengers to travel by bus.

Transport demand in Delhi will increase from 14million to 28million by 2021. It is well known that about 60 percent transport demand is meted out by buses. But only 5000 new buses have been added during 2005 to 2007 against two lakh cars have been added.

But this new changes needs better traffic management, passenger movement etc. and hence there is need of planning and decision making.
