Baner Road - Safety concern

0

Sudhir Menon - 19 March, 2009 | Traffic | Pune | Safety | Road widening | Citizen Reports

Tried to post this concern in the 'suggestion' portal of Pune Traffic Police, but apparently it is not functional. Was wondering if there is some one in Praja team who is in touch with Pune Traffic police on Safety issues ?

There is a water pipe line on the University-Baner road close to NCL housing colony gate and almost opposite the National Housing Society gate. Due to road expansion the pipeline is now well within the road width. With increase in traffic and especially during night this can be dangerous to vehicles moving on the left most track towards Baner.

Since shifting the pipe may not be easy, what could be done is to immediately apply a flourescent paint on the pipe line and perhaps try to instal a warning light.

Dear friends
India as a country is moving towards a glorious future.Road safety is one of the key obstacle in this growth path.
  • The World Bank estimates that every year road accidents cost India about 3 per cent of its gross domestic product which was more than $1 trillion in 2007
  • Road accidents could become the No. 3 public health issue in India by 2020, overtaking such deadly diseases as tuberculosis and AIDS, the World Bank predicts.
Special Association for Road Consciousness is an initiative to spread road safety awareness by informing Indians and bringing the change in attitude among masses towards sensible driving.SpARCS Citizen Leader Program passes the baton of road safety to all Indians by supporting and encouraging conscious citizens to spread awareness.We also recognize the efforts of citizen leaders and awards them through credit based award system
