@footpath_india @ChangeOrg_India @blrcitytraffic @Tejasvi_Surya @DULTBangalore We have also started a petition to pass the Karnataka Active Mobility Bill which precisely institutionalises pedestrians & cyclists needs.

I feel we need to join hands. Share details, will ping you.

There are many reasons why the Active Mobility Bill matters for you, one important reason being what safe walking and cycling options mean for your health, especially in the time of climate change. Let's rethink the cities we build for future generations. Register now!

Bengaluru's green cover has fallen from 78% to 6%, its natural cooling systems are gone, and the city is baking.

And what is that fine print, Bengaluru?

"It's 5 real estate projects connected by a new Tunnel Road. Twice the traffic expected to be removed by the Tunnel Road will be newly generated. More real estate linked road building is injurious to sustainable mobility."

[Satya @solidview]

Dear Bengaluru,

Think about this, pls.

At ~4000 crores/km, is it worth building the N-S Tunnel Road?

It is tolled & Real estate revenues don't accrue to taxpayer.

Will it at least reduce long term traffic congestion?

NO. It actually increases traffic due to new real estate.

[Satya @solidview]

Why must Bengaluru speak up?

Tunnel Rd indulgence is unscientific & unfair.

It's all about priorities.

We must first get the basic public transport & footpaths right.

GoK's plan to borrow to grant 7k crs + real estate rights (~50k crs) using Tunnel Rd as a cover is a SCAM.

This is fantastic especially the allocation for repair and maintenance. I hope it reaches schools n helps lakhs of children return to govt skl in Karnataka. @Stand4she we continues working to improve govt skl and community sanitation system n ensure clean n safe sanitation 4 all
