Hello Sir, I live in Asmita Jyoti Co-operative Housing Society at Marve Road, Malad West. I am a retired police officer and would like to bring few things, which I have observed, to your notice. There is a bus stop named after our society, from where buses 243, 271, 272 etc, depart. The bus stop is 25 to 30 feet away from the signal. Narrow footpaths, stalls erected adjacent to the bus stop on that narrow footpath, motor cycle riders coming from the opposite direction from the signal, rabbit and waste material sacks placed on the footpath by the utility contractors and waiting for the bus in the hot sun due to lack of shade at this place, all these make this bus stop dangerous and inconvenient for the passengers. Number of passengers is high. It includes the young and old. The traffic stops on the signal. Also conductorless buses are stopped here for giving tickets to boarding passengers. Hence passengers have to run back and forth to catch the bus. I request you to shift this bus stop about 150 feet towards west, between gate number 2 of Asmita Jyoti Society and Christian Cross. Passengers can stand in the shade due to the availability of trees at that place. Also, it will be convenient for the bus drivers and passengers as it is away from the signal.
Thank you. Was this information helpful? |
