Beating the Zebra Crossing at a One Way !!!!
In this world nothing can be done in parallel. A month back the Guindy, Saidapet , Raj Bhavan roads has been made as one ways for better traffic control and flow. This made three Zebra Crossing at three points.
- At the Sardar Patel Road,
- Mount Road, and
- the connecting road of Little mount and Raj Bhavan.
As of now the traffic is let to flow by itself and self beat the crossing by themselves. You can see a new surprise everyday if you drive in these roads everyday, atleast a new barricade. Barricades are one of the worst forms of accidents in roads. How about setting a signal post at the centre of the road and people wanting to beat the Zebra crossing from each way will wait for some time [ 30 secs] in the signal for the time the other way people will cross. We can also make provision for people crossing the road.
Just my thought!!!

Zeebra crossing & One-way are implemeted to avoid the signals and unnecessary waiting time at signals only !!

Hi Anonymous ,
It should not be at the cost of human lives. The traffic block in this case will be only 10% as the previous one, as the traffic flow is only one way..!
Also that will be same when people try for the Zebra crossing !!!
