Praja meet to plan pedestrianization project
Written By silkboard - 22 April, 2009
Bangalore Praja Meeting Pedestrian Infrastructure
Thursday, Lalbagh West Gate, 4 pm
Let us make use of election day holiday to plan next steps on pedestrianization project. Refer back to recent discussions on pedestrianization possibilities for Commercial Street and Brigade Road stretch. Looks like there is enough interest and enough legs available to take this forward from mere discussion.
Confirmed attendance: das, silkboard, psaram42.
All are welcome, but remember, our meetings are to plan action. Discussions are reserved only for the website.

Can't make it for obvious reasons, but do check this out to get a glimpse in to how Times Square is changing. http://www.pricetags.ca/pricetags/pricetags107.pdf

I'll be there 4 PM.
Two other Praja members Vijay and Suhas too will be there (confirmed on phone). Vijay is an architect and I think Suhas too.
So confirmed attendance : silkboard, psaram42, vijay, suhas, das, srivathsa (coming late).
Srivathsa, will be great if you can advance your dentist thing a little.

Created this separate event post because not everyone may have read comments buried deep in the commercial street/brigade road posts.
Come Praje, let us do this small tangible and doable thing. Whether we manage to get some areas in CBD pedestianized or not, that comes later. The experience of doing such project is what we should look forward. At a minimum, we'd learn a lot via hearing different viewpoints and word of approval and disapproval from various people and authorities.
Remember - most of us do all this part time. So such projects can be successful only if more people share the workload.

SB,
I have a dentist appointment at 3:00; might go on till 4:00. And I live 30 mins from Lal Bagh West Gate. 5:00 to 6:00 would have been good. Weekday evenings is not good for me in any case.
Srivathsa
