The Purpose of Providing BRTS gets defeated when private automobiles are allowed in the Bus lanes.

 The provision was to increase the congestion in auto lane (indirectly) in order to make the Public Transportation attractive.

When finally we got a golden opportunity with construction caused congestion,

Again going back to the same arrangement (mixed traffic in lanes) even if for small time, would have disastrous repercussions in future.

People/Politicians would start asking for such lanes whenever there is congestion thus deafeating the purpose of BRTS.

 

Sir, your opinion?
