Sustainable MRTS:
The city has to plan a modern rail based mass rapid transit system. The Honorable Chief Minister had suggested monorail and the corporation also had passed a resolution a couple of years ago. Modern hybrid systems have been developed (like the Metrail under construction in UK and Dubai which functions fully on fuel cells and renewable energy and matches metro capacity) and its feasibility has to be worked out.

Smart bus shelters:
Provide smart bus shelters in all bus stops, both in old and extended corporation areas. The corporation is developing 50 hi-tech bus stops with private collaboration. There should be 10 a/c bus shelters in major locations and other smart bus stops with ATMs in other areas of the city. In extended and outlying areas, fix and assemble type bus shelters can be provided. The bus shelters can have roof top solar panels so that they can be self-sufficient in power requirements.
