Introduction
• Less than 1/3rd of the total population of India live in cities but these areas account for about 90% of government revenue.• Cities plays a vital role in economic growth but this growth is
sustainable only if the cities function properly.• India’s urban population growth- 3% per year• Expected urban population is to be about 500 million in
2021(assuming 34% decadal growth)• Consequently number of metropolitan cities have also rose from
35 in 2001 to 50 in 2011.

• Although Indian cities have lower vehicle ownership rate than their counterparts in developed countries, they suffer from worse congestion, delay, pollution, and accidents than the cities in developed countries. • Delhi has an estimated population of 18.6 million and vehicle
registered are 6.46 million till now whereas Los Angles has 6.43 millions vehicles for 4.011 Million population

• Private vehicle ownership is increasing much faster than the transport system and services.

inadequate public transport infrastructure
• the share of buses is negligible in most Indian cities as compared to personalized vehicles. For example, two-wheelers and cars together constitute at least 90% of the total vehicles in Ahmedabad (91%), Delhi (90%), Lucknow (93%), and Nagpur (91%) whereas in these cities buses constitute only 1%, 0.7%, 0.3%, and 0.4% respectively.

REASONS
• Even simple measures like use of seat-belts and helmets, mandatory according to the Motor Vehicle Act 1988, are not properly enforced.• city authorities are even unable to tackle the problem of stray
cattle on the roads, which often jeopardize the safety of road users.• Lack of design standards for transport infrastructure- IRC
guidelines are not mandatory be followed by contractors

Move from • Vehicle oriented mobility• Managing road traffic and
congestion• Dedicated mobility• Efficiency driven mass mobility• Fixed station, interval data
collection
to
• Human oriented mobility• Managing travel demand and
emission• Shared mobility• Eco friendly mobility• Real time data collection

Possible solutions• Promoting compact townships• Re-aligning legal and regulatory authorities• Enhancing co-ordination among transportation agencies• Strengthening regulatory bodies-functional responsibilities for urban
transport are fragmented among central, state, and local level governments where no one entity is in charge of overall coordination.• Improving the efficiency of the bus transportation• Promoting public-private partnership in infrastructure projects• Resource mobilization
