Namma Railu(updated, Jan 5: now stands postponed) - continue forward from recent round table and meetings with DULT/SWR etc to understand what needs to be done next. - Non Motorized Transport (NMT) : Cycling - Discuss proposals to promote Cycling as the last mile mode. Prominent bureaucrats and technocrats are expected to be on the panel for this workshop
- Bus Priority System - Discuss feasibility of Bus Priority System, with G1/335 as example corridor. BMTC, BBMP and Traffic police are expected to be on the panel for this one.
The three technical sessions will be held in parallel, in the second half of the day (January 10), attendance will only be via pre-registration, and there will be fixed seats for all attendees.
