Powai_road_widening
23rd Feb I was in Thane (yehoor) forest for Mahashivrati Vigil.
Along with my friends and brother. We traveled by BEST Bus.
As every one knows Powai road are in pathetic condition.
I was shocked to see Powai IIT walls demolished and also many trees chopped to make roads wide. For many people this will be a relief for some time (including we cyclist who use road sides).
Wait till 23rd March "TATA NANO" world cheapest car comes in Indian Market.
I can see people owing 2 to 3 Nano cars at one home. one each for all family members. And also one for their pet. :D
All place near road sides will be occupied by Car owners, rickshaw, Truckers and other motorist, as usual in most part of the world.
And not to forget Mumbai's second life line "Best buses" blocking the whole road to load, unload passengers.
End result all commuters will be frustrated. Only civil contracts, Govt officials will be happy as every one gets their share of money.
But in a long run will this help???
Most of the 5 lane expressways in the world are also clogged during peak hours.
So this lands to a simple solution.
BRT and Inspire people to take up Cycling. Will also need some more soultion in future.
Also Controlling the Population in India.

This time only 48 cyclists turned up for the ride.May be because of the exams around. So may be kids are busy studying and some forcing their kids to study.

Gagan had come all the way from Pune to Mumbai. He happen to come for the critical mass ride.

This time we really enjoyed CM as we could interact with lot of college students and family near to Welingkars, Podar, Ruia college.
Roads were crowded at places, which is good that we can be noticed. But at some places vehicles were also more. But there were no casualty, as we were in a group.
