Re: Restoring Footpaths

Post: As of now the highest no. messages under the transport forum implies that the commutation is a serious problem in Bengaluru. In the present scenario where time is money everybody tries his\her best to be on time. This move of initiating this 'abide' must be appreciated. Everybody who owns a vehicle usually considers the problem on the roads. But there are innumerable no. people off- roads. Even their problem has to be entertained. As discussed earlier footpaths are for pedestrians to walk. But many roads in Bengaluru hardly have a footpath! More over those are occupied by street-hawkers, parked vehicles, etc. It's dangerous to walk on footpaths as the pedestrians face a serious problem from the fast moving two-wheelers who usually ride on footpaths, dumped building materials etc. BBMP must consider this problem seriously and ease the pedestrian movement.
