While a number of accidents took place on the Nagar road BRTS corridor last month, the Pune Municipal Corporation has planned to build 5 foot over bridges to prevent accidents. However, NGO Nagrik Chetna Manch has said, ``the latest plan to build the foot over bridges is nothing but an attempt to divert attention and resort to knee jerk tactics for having rolled out the BRTS service in haste and under pressure.''.
``The focus will shift from the main issue which is rectification of the root causes on the existing infrastructure and make safety measures water-tight. Edge-to-edge completion of the entire BRTS infrastructure will be forgotten. And end result will be complete mayhem and chaos on Nagar Road," secretary of Nagrik Chetna Manch, Qaneez Sukhrani has said.
