if we want to control the growth of vehicles we shall have to develop a safe,unpolluted,easy,fast,comfortable public transportation system and also have to make strict laws to control the number of vehicles and inspire the people to use public transport than personal.for short distance people can ride bicycle and there should have cycle track.we will have to expand and develop the train transport for carriage and air service also to carry the people faster in less time.

In European countries they ride by cycle and feel confident and happy,but here even a child do not want to use.In fact for smaller distance work cycling to be promoted but major issue is safety.Due to huge four wheeler and complete polluted roadways buses without road sense it is difficult to ride a cycle.Govt.should take actions.There will be two benefits-1. Swachh non polluted India 2.Easy and safe human life.

The number of public transport vehicles and their frequencies should be increased in big cities so as to reduce the traffic which causes delay in every kind of productivity. Timeliness is also affected greatly by this. For eg: For people working in IT sector in Pune have almost negligible time for their family and personal work after they finish off their job for the day.

we should prmote use of public transport because pepole use personal vehicle as status symbol and consider use of public transport as a matter of shame.celebrities and other public icons should come forth and use public transport so that common man will also be encouraged to use this. In my opinion this is very effective idea to control heavy traffic

Allow the concept of Motorcycle taxi and bicycle taxi. Motor cycle taxi are popular in goa and cycle taxi in rural Africa and they occupy less space than auto rickshaw on road.

* restrict the heavy vechile movement in the day time into city or periphery, just like in delhi. * celebrate road safety and traffic awareness week every quarter in colleges * introduce the fuel credit coupon lottery system with discounts for passenger and two wheeler vehicles. ^ popularize fuel credit in the form of public distribution system and divide the traffic in constituencies like urban/rural; north/south. * if these ideas makes positive difference don't forget to reward me.

Sir, separate lanes for 2 wheelers. New flyovers can help. Double decker buses. One way lanes. Subways for crossings. One of the crossing can be on flyover. Footpaths for pedestrian. Separate routes for public transportation. Parking space should be constructed as multistorey facilities. No parking on roadsides. Construction of malls should be on the outskirts of the traffic areas. Civic sense of citizens and training of citizens through advertisement and campaigns(Schools are best place).
