Answer to 2nd Question: People seek cheap,convenient and timely means of transport. ricks are convenient but not cheap nor convenient as many reject passengers. Buses are overcrowded, tk time to reach, less buses during peak hours. Private tempo travellers could be started from different locations with cheaper rates.i.myself travel thru rbus, frm.borivli to santacruz. Cars many are comfortable sharing own cars,but 80% arent becoz of waitin time till the other person arrives and other aspects

1.Simple doable solution.Being a road traveller for paat 8 years,Have noticed the following changes which can be made: - Bus stops at the exit of flyovers cause extensive traffic as buses stop at busstops for around 1 min in which traffic from the flyover and below the fluyyover comes to a standstill. Bustops can be shifted in between two flyovers. - 30% HIGHWAY SPACE EATEN UP BY VEHICLE PARKING AT CRUICAL JUNCTURES BY SHOPKEEPERS BESIDES THE FLYOVERS.

Get More from current infrastructure itself: 1. During peak hrs, traffic is high in 1 direction and empty in another. Have dynamic lanes, so that other direction lane can be added to high traffic direction based on hour. 2. Reduce peak and trough between peak and off-peak hrs by a) By encouraging companies (not front desk facing, e.g. IT etc) to spread out starting/closing hrs( My company timing 08:30 to 17:30!) b) Incentivize Spread off days( sat/sun) across week for companies and markets.

As the smart cities are based on green city concept, use of cycle to be made mandatory for office going, if a person fails to manage four person as car pooling. Going alone in a big car does not make sense. It's physically and financially beneficial to a person. Roads should have two additions - one emergency Lane and other cyclist track. Emergency Lane will be dedicated for Ambulance, Fire tenders and authorised VIP movements. Smart city will be of smaller in size to achieve it.

Basically I am from southern part of Karnataka and a city which is known as one of the IT hub of India, Bengaluru. Traffic jams in here are due to unwanted halting of vehicles on junctions this includes city buses, local transporters, cabs. These transporters try to over smart their counter parts for better business makes traffic a hell. Avoiding such unwanted stops and having a pot hole free, unnecessary humps free roads will make a smooth journey without jams.

#MeraShaharMeraSapna बस से सफ़र करना हमेशा ट्रैफिक रश को कम करेगा। मैं चाहता हु की हर बस GPS से अपडेटेड हो ताकि अगर में अपने घर से निकल रहा हु बस स्टैंड के लिए तो अपने सिस्टम में ही देख सकु की बस अभी किस लोकेशन में पहुची है। इसी तरह का सिस्टम बस स्टैंड पे होना चहईए Gps map जिसमें बस की लोकेशन लोग देख पाये की बस कहा है ताकि वो अपने टाइम का सही इस्तेमाल कर सके और ज्यादा रश न करे

स्मार्ट सिटी में हर पुलिस जो की ड्यूटी पे हो उनके पास लेटेस्ट टेक्नोलॉजी फ़ोन होने जरुरी हो जिसमे उनके फ़ोन सीधे ट्रैफिक वीडियो कैमरा से जुड़े हो। ताकि वो लाइव देख सके की जहा उनकी ड्यूटी है उससे पिछले लोकेशन में कितना ट्रैफिक है उस हिसाब से वो अपने एरिया में ट्रैफिक को एडजस्ट कर सके।इसी तरह स्मार्ट सिटी के सिटीजन भी घर से निकलने से पहले ही अपने सिस्टम में देख सके की जिस नजदीकी एरिया में वो जा रहे वहा कितना ट्रैफिक है। हर घर जुड़ना चहईए ट्रैफिक कैमरा से #MyShaharMySapna
