THE REAL BRT CORRIDOR MESS & ITS NEW SOLUTION



Here comes the daily morning newspaper and the headlines talk about the troubling BRT corridor.

From not less than a week since the trials and the beginning of work in BRT corridors the trouble is growing more day by day. So, here comes a great deal of work just to overcome with the big fuss of this corridor. The government is spending Rs. 200 crore on constructing a fly-over to get a solution for the Problem of BRT corridor.

That shows the right budget allocation by our democratic government to improve the traffic conditions in the city.

With the construction of the corridor we are certainly left with a deep cry. A chain of accidents and long hours traffic jams are causing a lot of trouble to the public. Recently, a Delhi state corporation crashed into the narrow BRT corridor bus shelter.

Fortunately no one was injured, as almost two minutes before the bus arrived pedestrian way was found crowded with people.

With a view at the bus driver side, the driver blames the brake fail and crashing of bus stand on the faulty corridor designs. Can anyone imagine what if the bus shelter was found crowded? God knows who is really to be blamed the government, designers, constructers or the bus driver?

But are government is still determined to make the BRT corridor work at any cost, The Delhi government is considering the option of building a clover leaf flyover at chirag dilli. This project may cost the government a whopping Rs200 Crore.
But still none is sure that this whopping amount of Rs200 crore would really serve as a solution to the BRT corridor mess.

Let’s join cross our fingers once again as true Delhities and hope for certainly the best.
