| Additional Auto stands proposed for Doda town to ease traffic congestion | | | Early Times Report
DODA, Oct 5: To alleviate traffic congestion in Doda Town, Deputy Commissioner, Vishesh Mahajan today convened a crucial meeting of the designated members of Auto Rickshaw Stands Management Committee headed by ACR Sanjeev Kumar, to identify new feasible auto stands in the Doda Town. The meeting was held in the office chamber of DC Doda.
A comprehensive discussion ensued regarding the efficient operation and management of existing auto stands within the town. The Deputy Commissioner proposed the establishment of new auto stands at strategic locations to accommodate the increasing passenger traffic.
DC issued directives to enhance the aesthetics of the primary auto stand near the old bus stand, adjacent to the fountain point. Additionally, he suggested the installation of small vendor carts near the fountain area to accommodate vendors who were displaced. Furthermore, the Deputy Commissioner instructed the committee to establish electric auto stands near Ganpati Brigade, close to the police Chowki at Ghat Road and near Bharat Nallah.
To improve the visibility and management, the DC recommended painting yellow lines at all existing auto stands and affixing signboards with unique auto stand numbers. Furthermore, specific number plates, bearing the symbol "D" and sequential numbering (1, 2, 3, etc.), were proposed for auto vehicles. In a bid to monitor their activities, the DC directed the installation of CCTV cameras at all auto stands.
Addressing the needs of hospital-bound passengers, the Deputy Commissioner suggested the establishment of an auto stand near the Associated Hospital of GMC Doda. In a move to ensure accountability, officials were instructed to issue identity cards to auto drivers, linking them with their respective vehicles.
During the meeting, it was revealed that approximately 225 autos are registered under the Motor Vehicles Department. The DC also advocated for the creation of an auto stand near the Clock Tower on Dessa Road, adjacent to the SSP office complex. Many new auto stand locations were proposed to effectively manage and control congestion arising from heavy traffic.
The meeting saw the attendance of key officials, including ACR Doda, CPO Doda, SP Doda, Accounts Officer DC Office Doda, ARTO Doda, Executive Officer MC Doda, and officers from the Traffic Police Department. |
