Hubballi: Private vehicles deviate to the Dedicated Rapid Transit System (BRTS) bus in Hubballi-Dharwad dangerous not only passenger security and crew, but they themselves.
Ironically, the vehicle entered and left the Office of the Commissioner of the Hubballi-Dharwad Police in Navanagar using an invalid part through Brts Lane, many with disappointment of the population.
The closest Brts crossing is 200 m from the police commissioner’s office but this has not prevented those who visit or leave the building to take short pieces, which saves them difficulty taking a long detour.
Police vehicles are also prohibited from entering special routes, and they have to go around the Navanagar Junction to reach the commissioner’s office.
On the other hand, the vehicle bound to Hubballi from the office must take the transfer in the signal near the intersection of the legal college.
But these vehicles deviate unmatched to BRTS LANE to join the shared track; Baritricade that separates special corridors and adjacent highways has been removed so that it makes it easier for this vehicle to get into the Brts path.
Hubballi-Dharwad Brts officials said that many police traveled along special routes with impunity.
Vice President of HM Savantanavar Social Welfare Foundation, Gamanagatti Ah Savantanavar tried to remind police personnel from the former director of the BRTS statement of Rajendra Cholan, where the latter made it very clear that a dedicated corridor would be used for buses, and ambulances.
“He promised that the path could not be used by police or government vehicles.
But almost all government vehicles, including those used by the police, using a special Lane,” Savantanavar Rued.
An employee at the Income Tax Office, which is neighboring from the Board of Commissioners Office Building, said, “The police must have to establish a signboard to prevent other commuters from entering the stretch.
Junction of the state university Karnataka is 200m from the commissioner’s office, such as Navanagar Junction.
The police must try to enter The common route at these two points instead of deviating BRTS corridor.
“A retired traffic COP said that, unless the police have installed a signboard at the point where they entered the BRTS line or mark the point of using zebra lines, the entry into a special corridor legitimate.
A BRTS driver pointed to the danger that disturbed the vehicle entering or left the police commissioner to the requested track.
“It’s not easy to find this vehicle from afar.
I have to apply an emergency brake when an inspector drives a two-wheeled vehicle close to the bus.
When we bring this to the notification of senior police officers, we were told to adjust to the police,” he said.
The Implementing Director of Brts Gurudutta Hegde and Hubballi-Dharwad Police Commissioner Labhu Ram are both not available for comments.
However, BRTS General Manager Ramesh Gudeddy said that the problem would be the concernation of the authorities concerned.
