Basic Action Plan for Traffic Air Pollution Control -by Sanjay Pardeshi
January 9, 2016
The main reasons for Air Pollutions are:
1) Usage of too much Private Vehicles such as cars and two Wheelers.
2) No Separate defined lanes for two wheeler & cars on all roads resulting conjunction & slow traffic. In such cases, huge exhaust from vehicles polluted city areas tremendously.
3) No Separate left side defined red lane (as per our planning) for public buses, resulting crossing of vehicles, conjunction, traffic jam & huge pollution.
4) Increasing of public transport buses is one of the main solutions to control private cars & two wheelers resulting less pollution & traffic jam.
However these can achieve only when we can standardize all buses, their door positions & bus stops for the same. The separate left side “Red Line” is the key requirement for these buses.
To resolve all above problems & other transport problem, I have made ‘New Road & Transport Planning of Entire India’ for safe, smooth and pollution free travel. This action plan is ready for execution with the help of 20,000 words (approx.) & 134 sketches. This action plan has been demonstrated in the world meeting of International Road Federation (IRF) held in Riyadh.
This action plan consists of 6 innovative ideas & 24 types of standardizations, because of which traffic will regularized by 70% to 80% & accidents will be reduced substantially. Means safe, smooth and pollution free travel for everyone.
These 6 innovative ideas:-
- Separate lane for two wheeler (almost on all roads).
- Parallel parking on the road for all types of vehicles including two wheeler.
- Red line lane at left side for Buses, Auto rickshaw & taxies i.e. for public transport vehicles.
- Four door standardized Bus with unidirectional traffic system (UTS). This Bus will have separate door for ladies & family to get in & out. There will be separate seats for ladies & obviously separate bus stop also.
- Standardization of Bus stand, front infrastructure of Bus stand & railway station.
- BRT (Bus Rapid Transit) :- BRT Will run from left side instead of center of the road.
Similarly there will be 24 types of standardization comprising of different types of vehicles, Bus stops, dividers, bus stand etc.
1 |
City/Village internal roads. |
13 |
Buildings of ‘Chota Pariwar’. |
2 |
Outer city state / high / express ways. |
14 |
Bus / Electric bus |
3 |
Internal city over bridges. |
15 |
School bus / taxies / auto rickshaw |
4 |
State / high / express way over bridges. |
16 |
Small, big & share taxi. |
5 |
Road over the road. |
17 |
Light Commercial vehicles. |
6 |
Sub way & over bridges. |
18 |
Truck & trailer. |
7 |
All service roads. |
19 |
City bus stop & place of bus stops. |
8 |
Markings on roads Signal Systems. |
20 |
Road side public toilets & toilets in trains |
9 |
Parking system for all vehicles. |
21 |
Unidirectional traffic system (UTS) in Bus, railways & everywhere. |
10 |
Zebra crossing |
22 |
Intercity Bus stand & its front infrastructure. |
11 |
Signal Systems |
23 |
Front infrastructure of railway stations. |
12 |
Internal city dividers & state / high / express way dividers |
24 |
Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) |
Above standardization are shown in main 190 pages action plan. Similarly animation of six new ideas is ready & can be seen on www.newroadtransport.com
Any city will be a “smart city” provided it should have separate lane for two wheeler. In above action plan, you will find separate two wheeler lane on almost every road. We all know that India is No. 1 in the road accidents & maximum accidents occurred are of two wheeler. At present two wheeler accident death is the highest in India & hence two wheeler should have then separate lane on the roads. All two wheeler are travel wherever they find place/gap on the road. They don’t have choice. Resulting, though we draw any international standard lane marking on roads, still we will see indiscipline traffic & it is because of non availability of proper lanes, two wheeler lanes is the requirement of the Indian transport system.
Similarly about public transport vehicles, especially for buses. We will draw separate lane for the buses on maximum roads (As shown in the action plan) which will gives cause easier travel for the ladies & children.
The next work is Bus stand & bus stop. Unless we standardized these in the entire country we cannot avoid jostling. You can see animation of these on www.newroadtransport.com.
Similarly about BRT, school taxi, rickshaw, dividers etc. we have to think collectively & minutely on each issue, make standardizations & accordingly execute quality work which is the base of this action plan. Otherwise we will start metro like Delhi but still we find indiscipline rush at outdoor of this metro station like in Delhi.
If we really wish pollution free transportation system like in Dubai or in America, then we have to think on micro levels on all aspects, make action plan (which is ready) & execute it qualitatively without any compromise. If we compromise on each issue, then we will find BRT which are exist now. For example, in Delhi, government invest huge amount to built BRT & then incurred heavy expenses to destroy it. Means wastage of money, time & efforts.
Hence the main feature of ‘New Road & Transport Planning of Entire India’ is a new concept of building complete basic infrastructure of road & transportation system in minimal time, expenses & changes.
Please note, until we built complete basic infrastructure for road & transport, we will not get 100% result of any major projects like metro, BRT etc for road and transportation, Parking and Traffic Air pollution. In any country, first basic infrastructure gets developed as per their needs & then mega projects executed.
Hence we will help / support government people, departments & we will follow this action plan. For these, we can print / read one/two standardization in daily news paper along with sketches which will help us to understand action plan gradually. Once all standardization will be published, we will complied it, the compiled book will be our action plan.
I appeal to all of Indians to join this revolutionary action Plan to make it happen in India.

One comment on “Basic Action Plan for Traffic Air Pollution Control -by Sanjay Pardeshi” Post your comment
Having read the concept and action plan for the “New Road & Transport Planning of Entire India”, I conclude certain key components are missing in this plan. These are, in technical terms, interfaces between various transport modes (specifically air, rail, and pedestrian); system has to be based upon size (one shoe size fits all) is doomed to fail from the very beginning; and capacity/ smooth transition at the interface. The pedestrian components and interface capacity is equally or more important than the rest. I will be happy to continue this dialogue further (if needed).
