Time for action to reduce traffic
There are probably 10 traffic rants on this sub daily.
But no action.
I recently met with the traffic commissioner, Kartik Reddy.
He agreed that reducing the number of vehicles along with more public transit options is the only way to reduce congestion. Don’t forget 2,500 vehicles on average are added to our roads, DAILY.
I recommended to help legalise and introduce regulations around private carpooling. Reducing single occupancy vehicles is one of the fastest ways to reduce congestion. He’s willing to take the case forward. I have provided supporting data from governments around the world who have legalised white board carpooling. To further strengthen my case, i was thinking of making sort of like a petition where I can record votes / support from residents who align with my vision.
Open to suggestions, as I’ve never done anything like this before. Is this a good approach?
Absolutely sick of commuting for 3 hours daily. Something has to be done.
