"I ask the youth, which future do you wish to see? Going out to a street of 16 lanes with EVs? Or a future of blue skies, the ability to walk to and from places, and safely doing so. The vision is yours," said Geetam Tiwari, Chair Professor for Transport Planning, IIT Delhi

#roadsafetyweek District : North East | School : Govt Boys Gokalpur It's a simple ask : Let there be 'street' light #delhi #children #education #future #School
HumanQind@humanqind

Justice Verma Committee report of February 2013 recommended - “street lighting everywhere would provide more safety since dark areas are more prone to facilitate crimes.” In addition, “Street vending should be encouraged to make the bus stops and footpaths safe for communities."

#RoadSafetyWeek District 5: East | School : RSBV Shakarpur Everyday school going experiences make young persons think of their place in the world. Students see the apathy of infrastructure. @TransportDelhi @ashishkundra @pwddelhi @trip_centre #schoollife #pedestrian #footpath
HumanQind@humanqind

The Ministry of Urban Development guidelines known as ‘Harmonised guidelines for space standards for barrier-free built environment for person with disability and elderly persons’ issued in 2016 specify that footpaths “be not more than 150 mm high”. #roadsafetyweek2023

So, next time you judge an empty cycle track (and people judge them a lot), look for junctions up and down the road, and you will have your answer. Cyclists are not teleporting themselves to a cycle track.
Rahul@rahulatiitd

Only segregated cycle tracks don't help. They are important but a lazy choice, imo. The key is to make crossings/junctions safer. That is where cyclists are not moving parallel to the traffic stream and are exposed to multiple lanes of traffic.
