Experts say the bicycle not promoted as primary mode of transport in city
Cycling enthusiasts in the city are envious of the Chandigarh Smart City announcing an upgraded non-motorised transport draft policy with the focus on safety and incentivising cycling. While Chennai had announced the non-motorised transport in 2014, not much progress has been made to encourage people to start using bicycle as the primary mode of transport to workplace or as the connectivity mode for public transport. Felix John, an ardent advocate for non-motorist transport and a cycling enthusiast, said the Chandigarh Smart City, with its non-motorised transport draft policy announcement has earned kudos for the way it plans to promote cycling.More Related News
