NEW DELHI: The traffic police have planned to turn the stretch between Andh Kanya Mahavidhyalaya to the tea point of Double Storey in New Rajender Nagar opposite to Pamposh road into a one way stretch to facilitate movement of visually disabled children in the area. http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/City/Delhi/One-way-stretch-to-help-disabled/articleshow/38985219.cms "We have considered the stretch to be vulnerable as a number of visually impaired cross the road through the day, a two way road is difficult for them to cross," said a senior police official. He added that plans are also made to install auditory signals in the area.
Police said that though the college for visually impaired children is located on Shankar road, students heading towards central Delhi need to cross the road to avail buses. The visually impaired students and residents face problem due to the heavy traffic on the road on the road from Andh Kanya Vidhyalaya to the T-point of Double Storey area New Rajender Nagar. The cops are also planning to put up ripples near the crossing to slow down the speed of vehicles. Police said that the regulation will be in place 24 hours a day and signboards will be erected in the area indicating the ordered restrictions, said traffic official. http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/followceleb.cms?alias= -- Avinash Shahi M.Phil Research Scholar Centre for The Study of Law and Governance Jawaharlal Nehru University New Delhi India Register at the dedicated AccessIndia list for discussing accessibility of mobile phones / Tabs on: http://mail.accessindia.org.in/mailman/listinfo/mobile.accessindia_accessindia.org.in Search for old postings at: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ To unsubscribe send a message to [email protected] with the subject unsubscribe.
