Encourage people to use public transport by discouraging two wheelers. Also we should encourage car pooling. We see many cars in road with driver in it.

To reduce corruption from traffic police use the following. Ask to challan for traffic rule defaulter. Give 90% value of challan to the tragic police who cut the challan as commission. By this the traffic police will never take bribe. Also give hand held data recorder. The traffic police will note the driving licence no. This will help in blocking driving licence of frequent defaulter. As tragic police get official commission he will feel proud during duty. Also as the people will be scared.

Traffic Policemen should be easily visible at crossing to deter people from red light jumping and crossing the stop line.

3.Providing the driver with a loud speaker to alert people or share information on traffic Designing buses for the challenged citizens (easier ways to bring in their wheelchairs). Security cameras at the entrance, exit and at center where people commute standing Promoting usage of stop buttons so that buses do not stop at halt stations where there are no pickups or drop outs by doing so we can save on fuel and time.

3.Enabling the options for tracking the bus through apps, hence commuters can know the exact time when the bus would arrive or a fixed and a transparent schedule that is displayed at the bus halt stations. Bus stops that display exact/expected arrival time for better travel planning.Automated announcements or displays inside the bus about the current stop and the next stops along the route.Allowing people to give immediate feedback on the driver/ conductor/safety issues through online apps.

2. Promoting car pooling among office goers with car sharing apps in public and private sectors hence reducing car traffic on the road. Further increasing the frequency of buses (normal, A/C and mini) during peak hours. Also promoting buses in a new category, where people can book their seats within the city with an extra fee – App based. These buses carry exact number of commuters as specific to the bus vehicle capacity.

1. Update the commuters with the live updates of traffic through Google maps and promoting the use of GPS for routing them to alternative routes by which we can avoid high intensity traffic congestion. Also separate lanes for cars. Two wheelers, pedestrians and cyclists must be made available wherever possible.
