Chennai One App - Improvements

Author

Despite the Chennai One app offering several unique features not found in other applications, there are still areas that require attention. Users have reported that MTC buses occasionally display incorrect QR codes and sometimes encounter issues when generating tickets. To assist the passengers, the transport staffs needs to be trained on how to use this app.  Furthermore, tickets cannot be cancelled if they are no longer needed, resulting in potential financial loss.

Speeding increases wear and tear

Increased maintenance is an unseen consequence of speeding! 
Tyres and roads wear out faster at higher speeds leading to frequent tyre-changes and recurring road construction. Tyre and surface wear also releases more heavy metals and microplastics. These particles don’t just go away, but find their way into our food and water.

Higher speeds increase air pollution

Author

Increased air pollution is an unseen consequence of speeding. 
More carbon dioxide is emitted at higher speeds, contributing significantly to global warming. More nitrogen oxide is emitted at higher speeds leading to smog, acid rain and respiratory problems. Lower speeds can reduce particulate matter emitted by vehicles by 15%!

In a country where 44% Indian cities face chronic air pollution, small changes can make a huge difference. 
Remember, slowing down also means breathing easy.
