A proper
website with timings of all buses and new routes must be updated very
day. A mobile app must be launched by creating a contest allowing
colleges, institution, students and It professionals to participate and
prizes must be given.
1. Install and use GPS already
installed in MTC buses to display location in the bus stops to identify
the next bus which will reach stop.
2. All a/c bus must have tv's to generate content and ads to earn revenue.
3. All A/C side glass doors need ads atleast for doors if you consider safety issue.
4. Sell water inside buses.
5. A/C buses must run at prices which are profitable for govt.
6.
A/C buses plying between cmbt and kelambakkam during weekends must be
diverted and used for tourist spots like MGM, VGP, Mamallapuram, Marina
beach, parthasarathy temple in marina, mylapore temples, besant nagar
church and beaches. Instead all a/c buses are plying to IT park areas
were there is holiday on saturday and sunday only very few people will
travel.
7. A/c buses should also take short trips in
weekends from a) velachery bus stand - mamallapuram b) velachery -
marina beach c) vadapalani or kknagar- besant nagar (sundays all
christians will travel) d) cmbt to marina
Use a/c buses in other routes also since weekends are loss anyways for a/c buses in IT routes.
8. Deploy all buses in it routes after 9 pm to different routes also dont make them short routes.
9.
All mtc buses must stop in bus bays exactly in IT expressway. They must
adhere to signal, they must be the role model to society. All normal
bus drivers must be allowed to cut down one trip since during summer we
find them difficult to drive. Special allowance must be given to them.
10.
All 570 and 19B going towards kelambakkam must enter IT expressway since
IT people are the revenue earners for the route. Similar can also be
done for buses plying from kelambakkam towards cmbt so many will board
inside it park itself. It will be greatly appreciated by all people.
11.
The bus stop near velachery bus stand which has been constructed(while
going towards srp) is not used completely since buses dont stop exactly
near the bus stand constructed and only auto drivers are using it. They
quality of new bus stops are also not of very high standard they will
not last for long we guess. It is very feeble and the supporting joints
are not enough. Most people sleep on them, hence small iron rods must be
welded across so that nobody can sleep and can be used only for
sitting.
12. You can create a new route to ply for A/C buses from cmbt to kelambakkam combining the routes of 5E and 568C.cmbt, kk.nagar, saidapet, madhya kailash, thiruvanmaiyur, srp, siruseri kelambakkam. It will help reduce cost on diesel by shorter route and name it 571.
More
than river interlinking we must consider converting sea water to
drinking water or in huge quantities to be poured in the paths of rivers
like vaigai, cauvery, which will benefit in a much bigger way. Funding
using bond creation in stock markets.
11. Cable Car project - Kodaikanal and Ooty - Similar to Genting Highlands, Malaysia - Funding please try bond market in stock market.
Long
distance cable car project must be implemented in ooty and kodaikanal
for long distance travel of say 10-15 kms to tourist spots like in
malaysia genting.
In malaysia genting a cable car for 50 kms has been created. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genting_Skyway . This will bring in more tourists and show our strength in infrastructure.
12. Extension of MRTS or Metro - Thiruvanmaiyur to Kelambakkam (Please avoid the project on flyover over It expressway in long run it will not help our people)
To
extend the city you should definitely consider extending the MRTS from
thiruvanmiayur to kelambakkam. It will support the mtc buses in a big
way and bring inmore revenue. If the state govt. wants to earn revenue
consider a metro project. Do consider it to be done in underground. Try
to avoid the two level project. Consider metro project by using
bond(8.5% interest rate) in stock market to generate revenue to start
project by doing as PPP project.
