Speeding, a demon that plagues Delhi

Hindustan Times  

The Choubey family lived a happy life. At least nine planned high-speed corridors crisscross busy stretches in Delhi – NH-48, NE-3, GT Road, GT Karnal Road, Outer Ring Road, Rohtak Road, Najafgarh Road, Mehrauli Badarpur Road and Wazirabad Road. To reduce road traffic fatalities and injuries, Delhi requires a concerted emphasis on implementing slower street initiatives, enhancing speed control measures along high-speed corridors and accident-prone areas, and improving enforcement efforts,” said Sarika Panda Bhatt, founder and trustee of Raahgiri Foundation. “This involves modifying the street environment to streamline traffic flow and vehicle speeds by incorporating traffic calming measures like speed humps, raised crossings and rumble strips along with ensuring clear traffic signage and road markings,” Ashar added. The report adds that key strategies include “identifying accident-prone areas and upgrading road infrastructure to enhance safety and implementing traffic calming measures to reduce vehicle speed in residential and high-risk areas”.
