@streetfrontier They should make a gondola from dehradun would probably be 10-15 kms and also increase congestion fee for all taxis, cabs and non mussoorie vehicles it's currently 150-200 rs to 3k for hatchbacks 4k for sedans and 5k for suvs half the traffic will disappear

How do you shoot yourself in the foot? Mussoorie Traders Welfare Association suggestions: - widen roads - develop alternative roads - increase surface parking for cars - build multi-storey parking for cars There isn't a single point in the article on improving public transport and active mobility.

@shedfur @SidXInfra @bhaumikgowande You're using just expressways im using highways and freeways as well where mmr with my criterias comes out to around 140, Seoul 160-170 and Delhi 200

@Pranav1X @SidXInfra @bhaumikgowande > same way delhi metro region has more than Seoul but maps don't show it Seoul Metropolitan area expressway density 37.5 km per 1,000 km² Delhi NCR - 13 km per 1,000 km²

To give context, just imagine Mumbai Western Express Highway or Delhi-Gurgaon Expressway converted to a riverfront. Thats what Seoul did.

@shedfur @SidXInfra @bhaumikgowande The reason I showed Delhi was to point out it might look like Seoul has alot more than mmr but it is only 2-3x in reality, same way delhi metro region has more than Seoul but maps don't show it

@Pranav1X @SidXInfra @bhaumikgowande I was comparing with MMR but okay, Here is Seoul metropolitan area vs NCR, taken from the same altitude. India is an Infra starved nation, I agree that our main focus should be public transit but that doesn't mean we should stop building roads.

@trainwalebhaiya They serve different purposes rrts is for high volume major cities with frequent stops below 150-200 kms distance for daily commute high frequency , shsr is for 200+ km lesser stops lower frequencies, both are needed in most major cities eg Delhi - dehradun good for shsr

RRTS vs Broad Gauge Semi-HSRs: Which one should India go with? Recently, India announced its first-ever Broad Gauge Semi High-Speed corridor from Ahmedabad to Dholera, a 140 km long line with a design speed of 220 km/h and an operational speed of 200 km/h. This new project makes me wonder what India should go with. On one side, we are developing RRTS, a regional transit system with a design speed of 180 km/h and an operational speed of 160 km/h. Meanwhile, this newly announced BG Semi-HSR will be 25% faster in terms of operational speed at 200 km/h, with potentially lower construction costs, and the added advantage of connectivity with the existing Indian Railways network. I feel that along with HSR on all major routes, India should build BG Semi-HSRs as spurs on the next important corridors. RRTS should be limited to major metropolitan regions, seamlessly connecting suburbs and nearby cities. Just hoping it doesn't turn into a mixed khichdi in the end 🤞 What's your opinion on this?

@AneraoKailash @bodkeitis You need 15-20 buses minimum to compare with even a 4 coach metro now imagine how many you need with 6 coach metro and 100s of train sets

@bodkeitis The answer is to increase e-bus services so that they can become last mile connectivity to Metro 4 (delayed indefinitely) instead of another Metro project. Present strength of public buses in Thane is greatly insufficient to service the present & projected population of Thane.

No clear benefits? Just go on the SATIS and stand in the queue for bus for 45 mins. In any queue, lokmanya Nagar, Upvan, Kolshet. The working class and middle class people will support the project unlike you Anti development NIMBYs. You 4-5 societies are not the ones to decide metro will be constructed or not and also the so called environ'mental'ists should not decide whether the metro is needed or not. It was planned years ago and if you're crying now so it's your problem. If you NIMBYs don't want metro so it doesn't mean the entire city shouldn't want it. #Thaneneedsringmetro #Ringmetrowahibanega

@shedfur @SidXInfra @bhaumikgowande Looking at a map you would think Seoul metro region has more high capacity roads than Delhi but it doesn't delhi has more

@Pranav1X @SidXInfra @bhaumikgowande Are you really comparing these two?

@shedfur @SidXInfra @bhaumikgowande I wasn't the one comparing anything I just replied to the person above that mmr is half the size and has half the network

@FviCiut @aparanjape @navimumairport Found it thank you 👌 that would make it 5 stops for lrt/PM if done well

@Pranav1X @aparanjape @navimumairport You can see the master plan here - adanienterprises.com/-/media/Projec… Bullet train line is also 10-15 years away because Mumbai-Pune ghat section is incredibly difficult terrain

Good location... should be a short walk to the terminal? Using motorized walkways, escalators...) cc @navimumairport

@FviCiut @aparanjape @navimumairport I haven't seen anything on 4th terminals location also don't see how it can be built there and even if it is built there that's 15-20 years away and they should make a small lrt line with 4 stops targhar stations nmia hsr station and khandeshwar

@Pranav1X @aparanjape @navimumairport T-4 planned in that area. Automatic People Mover being constructed to connect all four terminals

@theanonlurker It will have 4 platforms biggest problem with most hsr stations is how far they are from the main city

Why are all HSR stations in India so tiny??? They barely have platforms, nor do they have capacity for rush periods. Compare this with Chinese or European stations

@sadist_2003 Lonavala station should probably be in Lonavala tho it's like saying bkc station but it's actually in bhandup atleast have it 2-5 km from the city but 20?

25 kms ..? 🫪🫪💀💀💀 But then it was always expected for Mumbai - Pune. You need a high Radius of curvature & minimal gradient of tracks for trains travelling at 320kmph. Mumbai-Pune is going to take a lot of time folks. 🙃🙃

@cbdhage Lonavala station 20 kms from lonavala laughable tbh how do you manage to make projects for 10s of thousand cr but get stuff like this so wrong

Mumbai Hyderabad HSR . The longest tunnel on route about 25 km . Lonavala station sandwich between Two hills and tunnels.

@bhaumikgowande Just make Eastern western freeways and Eastern express highway underground the land above becomes green corridors with walking and cycle tracks with lrt and bus lines, taking them underground would free up almost 3-5 sq kms

@SidXInfra @bhaumikgowande Seouls metro area is 12k sq km mmr is 6k, Seoul has 400-500 kms of highways freeways and expressways, mmr has 300 kms

@bhaumikgowande The comparison isnt fair. Seoul has 10 expressways of 175km length for a population of 9 million. Mumbai has 1 of 29 km for a pop of 24 million. They built far too much hence are able to do such shenanigans. Indian cities are road starved. Need to build more of everything.

@P4BL0G4V1_ Releasing boult shardul chahar frees up 24 cr if we include Rutherford almost 27 also the salary given to Rohit and hardik is not worth it max 8 cr it should be Ryan is on 1 tilak 8 ideally release rohit and hardik and if we get them below 14 that's 4 extra cr for us to spend

Mumbai Indians OS for next season Keep: Rickelton Jacks Ghanzafar Rutherford Bosch Santner Release Boult QDK

@aaryansampat @Islanders_Extra I completely forgot they changed it 😭 thanks 👌

@Pranav1X @Islanders_Extra It will take us 2nd as things stand. League table is updated with H2H points at the end of the season.

A win tonight would take Mumbai City FC from 7th to 2nd on the table‼️

@effluxis @ImperiumHindu @Dev_Fadnavis Hsr line will have max 2 stops between 1st station in Mumbai and last in pune rrts can have 10-15 stations in 100-150 kms

@ImperiumHindu @Dev_Fadnavis Might be redundant since HSR is planned, but still more trains is good 👍

Pune-Mumbai RRTS when @Dev_Fadnavis

@InspireeMilions Should make 3 hsr lines from nashik-pune-satara-kolhapur and Mumbai-nashik Aurangabad-jalna-akola amravati-wardha-nagpur and Kolhapur solapur latur nanded yavatmal wardha nagpur those three corridors have populations of almost 12, 40 and 8 million

Solapur, Jalgaon, Amravati, Kolhapur will join a million plus club from Maharashtra in upcoming census. Most diversified & urbanised state for a reason.
