Hyderabad has lost $5.5 billion due to traffic congestion. This is five times the current GHMC approved budget.













Indore joins the list of cities dismantling its Bus Rapid Transit System(BRTS). BRTS was touted by lot of urban planners as model for urban mobility (remember couple of IIT profs even pitching it in Delhi as an alternative against metro) Perhaps the truth is that BRTS works on paper, not in cities where lanes are few, lane enforcement tend to be very weak, and mixed traffic is chaos. So BRTS kind of initiatives done to decongest often ends up choking roads.
