Jaipur: To ease traffic congestion, the regional transport office in Jaipur has decided that 11 zones will be created for e-rickshaws. After a meeting on Monday, the final proposal will now be sent to the transport commissioner for further approvals.
Officials said 10 zones will be divided according to areas under the jurisdiction of JMC-Greater and JMC Heritage and one zone will be made near the Metro stations. The e-rickshaws will be coloured as sky blue, red, orange, yellow, brown, green, grey, pink, maroon, blue depending on zones of either JMC-Greater or JMC-Heritage.
“We have decided 10 different zones for the city where e-rickshaws will be allowed and one zone near Metro stations which will be covering one to kilometres distance from the station. A meeting was held with all stakeholders on Monday and the final proposal will now be sent to the transport commissioner. The e-rickshaw unions are still opposing some of the points, but the zones are mostly decided,” said Virendra Singh, regional transport officer Jaipur. Singh further said total four zones for e-rickshaws will be made in areas under JMC-Heritage of which two zones will be made in the Walled City. TNN
