BTRAC & Signals

12/09/08 07:13 - vasanth

BTRAC is putting signals in almost every intersections and replacing manual signals with lights.

One thing I observed in most of the replacement was that there is more congestion and waiting now. Traffic cops were manually observing the density of vehicles and releasing it accordingly. Waiting times used to be less.

Mysore Bangalore Rail Double line Project

12/08/08 15:59 - e.r. ramachandran

Whatever happened to the gallopping project of Double line between Bangalore and Mysore? The latest roadblock is the monument concerning Tippusultan Gun carriage which is rumoured to come very close to the tracks and hence the doubling rail track goes back to the back burner or freezer if you ask me!

12/08/08 14:25 - silkboard

Tune your mind to observe traffic signs in the city, and you'd notice a few things. One, BTRAC project is busy putting up a lot of new ones. Two, perhaps they needn't have spent taxpayer's money on putting them up. Three, sorry Mr Sood, BTRAC may not be doing the best that it can.

Indistan - an interesting concept

12/06/08 10:51 - murali772

After the Mumbai massacre, everyone agrees that something has to be done about Pakistan, which without doubt was the passive platform for if not the active instigator of the attack, as it has been of so many terror attacks against India in the past.

Vote of Confidence

12/06/08 10:34 - murali772

In this season of bad news, here's something to cheer. People turned out in impressive numbers to vote in all the states where assembly elections have taken place recently. Their faith in this crucial democratic exercise is heartening, especially when parts of the public sphere are resonating with anti-politician rhetoric.
