Encroachments to be removed from BRTS service lanes

CEO of AICTSL has been directed to remove encroachments from the blocked service lanes of BRTS during a meeting of Traffic and Road Safety Committee held at Collectorate on Wednesday. 

It was resolved during the meeting that the left turns of some squares will be widened. These include removal of some portion of construction from LIG Square, left turn at Industry House, reducing the length of the boundary wall of the Dental College at Shivaji Vatika Square and removal of some electricity poles.

Necessary arrangements like notice boards, enforcement of parking rules etc will be made at the parking lots. Services of ex-servicemen will be taken for the purpose. No parking zone will be developed in Nandlalpura and parking charges will be realised from vehicles engaged in transportation of goods at Premsukh Talkies and Shivaji Market area. The parking space in Kothari Market will be reserved only for two-wheelers and the four wheelers will be parked in parking space of Maharaja Complex.

For construction of bus stand at Palda Square, it was informed in the meeting that IMC has completed tender process and construction will start after assembly elections.

Decision was also taken to demolish the bus stand at Vijay Nagar to facilitate traffic. The buses coming from AB Road bypass will be stopped near Radisson Hotel restricting them from going towards Vijay Nagar Square.

It was decided to allow the operation of only those school buses which hold permit from the transport department. Permit will be given for 16 routes only.

The buses for Dewas and Ujjain starting from Sarvate Bus Stand will pass through Geeta Bhawan Square, My Home and Pipalyahana Square. The buses for Khandwa, Khargone and Mhow will pass through Madhumilan Square, MY Hospital and White Church and Pipalyahana.
