Safe ride
Cyclists rarely figure in debates on traffic but if you take the BRT corridor early morning it will be difficult to miss hundreds of commuters pedalling to work on the bicycle lane. On average 8,326 cycles and 1,023 rickshaws use the corridor. They are the biggest beneficiaries of BRT, for they are the most vulnerable on roads.
