The document summarizes current transportation issues in an unnamed city, including rapid growth in traffic due to increased private car usage and poor public transit. This has led to problems like congestion, urbanization, and rising air pollution. Vehicle ownership in the city has nearly doubled over seven years. The document then presents data on the breakdown of vehicles and emissions sources in the city. It uses examples and logic to illustrate how shifting more commuters from private vehicles to public buses could significantly reduce road space usage and congestion. The document ultimately argues that expanding public transit rather than continuing to widen roads is needed to create a more sustainable transportation system and green city.

2. The problems
 Growth of traffic
 Private car usage increased.
 Poor public transportation system.
 Leads to oil crises.
 Poor traffic management.
 Where is road space ?
 Urbanization
 Growth of towns
 Rising mobility
 The increases in population, migration, uncontrolled urban expansion, income, economic
growth, energy consumption and mobility have created a serious for air pollution problems, in
cities throughout the world.

The logic
During rush hour (when people are
commuting to or from work),
Each bike carries 1 person
Each car carries 1 person
Each bus carries 75 people
There are 150 vehicles on this flyover.
These are carrying 150 people during
rush hour.

10. 同济大学交通运输工程学院 COLLEGE OF TRANSPORTATION ENGINEERING, TONGJI UNIVERSITY
There are 75 vehicles between
each pair of red lines, carrying 75
people (because there is only 1
person in each car or bike)

11. 同济大学交通运输工程学院 COLLEGE OF TRANSPORTATION ENGINEERING, TONGJI UNIVERSITY
 If we get each group of 75
people out of their private
vehicles and into buses,
 This is what happens.

12. The logic already works in Bangalore Beautifully
Proportionately
32 Lakh people in private vehicles occupy
this much road space
38 Lakh people in 5000 buses occupy this
much road space (0.5 %)
BMTC has 5000 buses, carries 38 Lakh people every day.
0.2 % of vehicle population carries 50 % of the human population.

Option 1
Keep widening roads and destroying Bangalore
+
Wait for metro for 100 years, cost Rs 1lakh cr.

14. Result
Air Pollution, Road accident, loss of trees, loss of homes and
businesses to widening.

15. Option 2
 For long commutes –public transport
Commuter rail
Bus
Taxis
Autos
 For short commutes –non motorized transport
Cycling
Walking

16. Result
A green Bangalore, with clean air, improved mobility, more money spent
on healthcare, water, power and education.
