Double the buses - Our cities are drowning in congestion and pollution

Author

Our cities are drowning in congestion and pollution — but there’s a clear fix: more buses.

 The Double the Bus campaign calls for exactly that: doubling our bus fleet so more people ride and fewer rely on private vehicles.

 That means cleaner air, reduced emissions, and accessible public transport for all.

 

Where we stand now:

 Right now, we have 3,407 buses on the road - that’s 715 more than last year. But this growth, while welcome, is still far from enough.

Dr. S. Ambirajan

CAG

Dr. Ambirajan, an expert in the area of socio-economic studies, taught in institutions worldwide including University of Manchester, University of Queensland and IIT- Madras. As a trustee of CAG, Dr. Ambirajan brought an intellectual quality to the discussions, even while interspersing it with his wry humour. He was an academic, blunt speaker and enthusiastic activist – all rolled into one. He liked to travel by bus everywhere and visited less affluent neighbourhoods on foot saying these experiences gave him an insight into the life of the common man.
