page 44

reading through a pdf by tripp . . .

. . . nanded municipality wanted broader mv lanes (we had proposed 5.5m) . . . fire tender and ambulance must pass together . . . that's the reason i heard . . . ! so i got curious about the ambedkar nagar delhi gate corridor . . . . what are they going to give us i wondered . . .

. . . 5.5m wide mv's . . . yup . . . better believe it . . . 6.75 most of the time, but reserve the right to be silent . . . 5.5

they will definately do one thing though . . . and this is a big one . . .

. . . unify the cross section, with a priority to pedestrians.

if you have actually checked out page 44, just notice the carriage way, the lack of level drops is striking if you're used to looking at delhi road cross sections. a 450mm high curb is standard. 150 max in the hcbs corridor. at grade pedestrian crossings. narrow mv's make smooth and medium speed traffic . . . it should work i say . .
