BRT is the answer to Delhi’s traffic woes: Expert

Delhi’s much-criticised Bus Rapid Transit (BRT), which all its political parties agree should be scrapped, can solve its traffic woes and reduce road accidents, if extended all over the city, Dinesh Mohan, an IIT professor and one of India’s acknowledged transport experts, said.

Delivering a talk on ‘Accidents, mythologies and science of traffic safety’ at the India International Centre here Friday evening, Mohan said the 5.7 km long BRT corridor in South Delhi was better than the one in Ahmedabad and should not be scrapped.
