Recent government actions in Mumbai and Pune show different ways of managing city travel. These include testing sustainable commuting projects and removing specific transport infrastructure.

孟買與浦那政府近期採取行動，展現了管理城市交通的不同方式。其中包括測試永續通勤計畫以及移除特定的交通基礎設施。

In Mumbai, the MMRDA and World Resources India started 'Friday Public Transport Day' in the Bandra Kurla Complex (BKC). This project aimed to reduce traffic jams and pollution by encouraging people to use public transport instead of private cars. Although the number of buses increased and feeder routes were doubled, there were still major problems with 'last-mile connectivity.' For example, commuters complained about poor walking paths and high prices from unofficial transport providers. MMRDA officials emphasized that private car use dropped by 5-7%, but many people still used app-based cabs. Consequently, the MMRDA is now planning to build shaded walkways and create formal partnerships with companies.

在孟買，MMRDA 與 World Resources India 在 Bandra Kurla Complex (BKC) 啟動了「星期五大眾運輸日」。此計畫旨在鼓勵人們使用大眾運輸而非私家車，以減少交通堵塞與污染。儘管巴士數量增加且接駁路線增加了一倍，但「最後一哩路接駁」仍是主要問題。例如，通勤者抱怨行人道品質不佳，且非正式運輸提供者的價格高昂。MMRDA 官員強調，私家車使用量下降了 5-7%，但許多人仍使用叫車軟體。因此，MMRDA 目前正計劃建設有遮陽設施的行人道，並與企業建立正式的合作夥伴關係。

On the other hand, the Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) decided to remove certain infrastructure to reduce traffic in the Vishrantwadi area. The committee approved the removal of the Bus Rapid Transit System (BRTS) lanes between Sathe Biscuit Chowk and Chandrama Hotel. This decision was made because the dedicated bus lanes were not being used enough, which limited the space available for general traffic. Municipal Commissioner Naval Kishore Ram asserted that the BRTS failed in this area because there were not enough buses. This move follows similar actions on other major roads, showing a shift in policy toward widening roads and building flyovers to improve the flow of traffic.

另一方面，浦那市政府 (PMC) 決定移除 Vishrantwadi 地區的某些基礎設施以減輕交通壓力。委員會批准移除 Sathe Biscuit Chowk 與 Chandrama Hotel 之間的巴士快速運輸系統 (BRTS) 專用車道。做出此決定是因為巴士專用車道利用率不足，限制了通用交通的可用空間。市政專員 Naval Kishore Ram 斷言，由於巴士數量不足，BRTS 在該區域宣告失敗。此舉繼其他主要道路之後實施，顯示政策正轉向拓寬道路與興建高架橋以改善交通流量。

While Mumbai is trying to change people's behavior toward sustainable travel through specific projects, Pune is focusing on increasing road capacity by removing bus lanes that do not work well.

孟買正嘗試透過特定計畫改變人們對永續旅行的行為，而浦那則專注於移除效果不佳的巴士車道以增加道路容量。
