Does Delhi have alternative to Even/Odd system
By forcing odd /even numbers cars are we addressing the real issue?
If you travel from Kutub minar Delhi to Hero honda chowk it takes 40 to 80 mins. This extra time is due to the huge congestion across the routes mainly caused due to poor parking by everybody and anybody.
This menace of poor parking exists in every colony, around market and commercial complexes in delhi. This mostly leads to congestion and forces commuters to wait with their cars ON burning the fuel, causing noise pollution and unnecessary altercations on the road
If we address this issue alone then it can reduce a actual usage of every car and in turn pollution. This would also save huge money for each user and more importantly will save huge Forex for the country.
We need to bring strict discipline on the road, create no parking areas along the road side and follow them strictly with hefty fines.
Odd/Even number system is only going to increase harassment to the people, will be a huge load on the people to buy cars.
Today buying a car has huge aspiration value for the middle class and upper middle class.
With 1 car being used by the family this rule will make the life of this whole class miserable. How will they travel on the alternate days ?
Delhi's public transport is extremely congested, the last mile or the arteries have no capacity to take additional load. This is only going to put the people on the mercy of OLA/Uber or even more importantly Autos.
Last and which looks less likely (from AAP Govt), is it a ploy to help the sagging automobile industry, to force the people to but additional cars ? more
