What was the factual position in the controversy about the ITO flyover and the BRTs?

0

The PWD proposed a flyover along Bahadur Shah Zafar Marg intending to reroute traffic alongside Pragati Maidan in order to make the ITO crossing signal-free. Bus stops were proposed to be relocated away from the junction; this implied longer walking distances for commuters changing buses. Oneway traffic in front of Pragati Maidan would result in a 200% increase in traffic on Bhagwandas Road and Tilak Marg junctions. Commuters using the buses would be adversely affected. Therefore it was decided to complete the HCBS corridor prior to the construction of the flyover at the ITO crossing.
