Bangalore - the Bus as a solution.

The document discusses how buses can help reduce traffic congestion in Bangalore. It notes that BMTC buses carry over 37 lakh people daily using just 5000 buses, while 32 lakh cars and two-wheelers carry only 32 lakh people. Buses take up much less space and cause less pollution per person transported compared to private vehicles. The example of Bogota, Colombia is provided, where the mayor implemented policies like bus rapid transit systems, bicycle routes, and restricting car access that dramatically cut commute times and pollution. With political will, buses could similarly help solve Bangalore's traffic issues on a large scale.
