Support for Pedestrian Safety PIL jennypinto - 28-APR-2013
Bengaluru is NOT a pedestrian friendly city. Pedestrian injuries and deaths are on a rise. Roads get widened, new roads get built, flyovers and underpasses come up every year, but very few of these projects see the required investment and designs for pedestrian amenities. |

Photos from a walk around Domlur flyover silkboard - 10-DEC-2012
Some pictures from a walk we took around the Domlur flyover. Really hard to get around here in peak traffic times. Most common walk here seems to be change of direction from Airport Road to Inner Ring Road and vice versa. Coming from IRR, to go to airport road towards HAL/Outer Ring Road side: [flickr-photo:id=8259087633,size=m] [flickr-photo:id=8259087373,size=m] |

Let us list all pedestrian danger zones silkboard - 3-DEC-2012
Bheema, hope you don't mind me posting this in the DDC project. I was thinking that we list down all pedestrian danger spots that we touch daily in our commutes. 10+ new flyovers or underpasses on Outer ring road, but only 1 pedestrian bridge (near K R Puram). Its getting worse, with no visible plans. I am scared that I will knock down a pedestrian one of these days. |

For residents of Kadugodi - the way to bus stand is still down and under Ramesh Menon - 30-AUG-2012
It is a very sad scene each time I pass by this major point of Whitefield. The railway crossing connecting Kadugodi population and the Bus stand is causing lot of difficulties for all. At any given time there will be a goods train waiting, with endless carriages, waiting for signal. It makes life difficult for all age a difficult process to cross over. |
