Thank you Syed. We will note the need for part 2 and see how we can get another episode on extended discussion of our traffic problems and what we can drive to make it better.
We need better Quality Roads, Routes, and Most Importantly Lane Discipline, People blindly stop, turn, park Blocking Traffic movement, Please Do Interviews of BBMP Roadworks Officials also🙏🙏🙏 The TrafficPolice needs their support too!
Honest and candid interview. Is BBMP listening? BTP can’t control street vendors but can penalise people parking their vehicles on the road because of them or because of infamous town planning strategy of allowing shops on every road. As much as BBMP or other agencies need to act, enforcement must be robust and not occasional. Look at Sahakara Nagar or Kodigehalli main road any evening. People openly come on wrong side without any fear of being hit or cops or system. Need a control system before these roadside parking become a norm in Bangalore
@rohit You are right. What is mainly needed: -Better Road lane system where it does not become larger and smaller, causing bottlenecks. -Also how street vendors should be given their space at appropriate locations, they also serve a large community with food and services that are much needed, but not ofcourse at the cost of blocking or restricting traffic.
While the notion of collective social responsibility is commendable, we must acknowledge the significant challenges that exist in our current infrastructure. With inadequate public transport that only covers about 10% of our needs, high taxes, and a growing economy, restricting personal vehicle ownership could hinder the mobility and aspirations of many individuals striving to improve their lives. Furthermore, this could inadvertently promote crony capitalism by limiting access to transportation to those who can afford alternatives. A more balanced approach that improves public transport infrastructure and makes it accessible and affordable is essential before imposing such restrictions.
Well said Ranjith. The key takeways from our discussion: -Public infrastructure to move at a faster pace than current, and not just relying on metro but a better feeder system and more suburban railways and building perifary cities/pockets outside Bangalore. -On your point on vehicle ownership we already somehow have the hindrance on car ownership with high road tax and registration costs with minimal infrastructure. If you noted our point that 2000 vehicles are added on the road each day, which means, there is that much road tax also collected at the same time, so there should be enough budget to build the Bangalore infra we need.

Real Life heroes 🫡
Fines using AI and Auto deduction of fine amounts from Bank account of owner will be a game changer to bring in discipline
Can’t siphon off money from an individual’s bank account in that way !
