High beam lights in Vehicles...

4 April 2008 - 11:14am — pradeep

There was lot of discussions about the high beam lights in cars, buses and other vehicles. Why this topic is stopped. The police department is not taking this into consideration.Even the people are careless about the high beam lights. Even within the city they use high beams.I dont know what is the use of it. Is it to show off or what. The traffic police dont even bother to check it. They are only concerned about checking the licenses and finding loopholes on how to issue a challan to the driver.

The adventurous bus stands - K R Puram

3 April 2008 - 11:56pm — silkboard
There are a few of these special bus stands these days that exist right before a flyover or an underpass. Just as the road forks and grade separation begins, you find some crowd. Buses usually stops to block traffic heading towards the underpass or flyover. And pedestrians either have to run across flowing traffic, or wait in the middle of traffic to catch buses. Needless to say, you get a lot of 'almost' hit-and-run and screeching halt situations.

Ideas for Bangalore

Segregation of Residential & Commercial Localities: The recent Cabinet decision for mixed zoning is highly deplorable. Occurrence of commercial activities in residential areas and vice versa will spoil the peace, tranquility and greenery of our lovely city and state lead to tremendous noise and dust pollution and disturb the peace of the neighborhood.This decision should be IMMEDIATELY REVOKED.

Ring Roads - whats up BMRDA?

1 April 2008 - 6:01pm — silkboard

Whats up with BMRDA? Their website has been dead for almost an year now, though that is not the best measure or indicator of their activity levels. Their plans for developing satellite towns around Bangalore have a real shot at solving our city's problems by de-congesting it. But there haven't been concrete updates recently.

Urban Rail - The Chennai Experience

1 April 2008 - 4:52pm — Naveen

Sometime back, I remember reading a report in a magazine (published from either HongKong or Singapore) about the Chennai Suburban Rail (CRS) & the newer MRTS. This report, I think was actually based on a study for economic assistance for expansion of the Chennai MRTS (Phases 2 & 3).

Bangalore pays second highest direct taxes in the country

1 April 2008 - 5:33am — mcadambi
According to the new RBI report on Municipal Finances in India, as indexed in the recent Budget speech of BBMP, Municipal finances of Bangalore rank very low. What is startling is that even tough we pay the second highest share of direct taxes (i.e personal taxes like what you and me pay out of our salary), it has no correlation with the per capita municipal tax.
