May 10 , 2023 436 days 847 0
  • The Shimla Police has come up with a ‘One Minute Traffic Light Plan’.
  • They proposed to set up traffic lights at 10 bottlenecks to make the state capital jam-free and reduce the commute time by more than half.
  • Under the proposed system, traffic would be released every minute in the ratio of 40:20 and 30:30 seconds.
  • This means vehicles would be stopped for 40 seconds and released for 20 seconds every minute during peak hours.
  • During normal times, they will be halted and released for 30 seconds.
  • The minimum halting distance under the new traffic system will be 500 metres.
