Public transport comulsory

Post: HOHO bus service is a very good concept. But like some one suggested I think it needs more adverstisement. (1)Which ever road has the HOHO service, entry of private vehicles to those roads should be restricted. Residents of those roads can be given special passes for their private vehicles. If this rule is followed it will force people to use the HOHO service without choice. (2)Start some type of bicycle ralley to popularize the use of bicycles. But many people suggest we should have dedicated bicycle lanes before any such exercise. I feel such a thing is not possible in the present road conditions, I think if majority of the population starts using bicycles only then the governament will be convinced to provide didicated bicycle lines. So before asking the governament for dedicated bicycle lines I think we shoudl show the governament that there are lot of people interested to use bicycles. (3) Arrange for a campaign for a month long which will show the importance of using public transport and bicycles, car pooling etc. Celebrities can be used extensively for such campaigns.
