Disciplined lane driving is coming out to be a unanimous solution. However, is it actually a solution when almost 70-80% of the drivers who use this road do not have access to these emails in which we brainstorm different solutions and take pledge to drive in lanes??
The root cause of the problem is convergence of multiple lanes into a single lane on pulia and not, not following lane driving. Therefore, it is formation of multiple lanes that cause jam every time and the problem will rectify only when there is no formation of multiple lanes OR the pulia becomes wide enough to accommodate multiple lanes.
So till the time pulia doesn't get sufficiently wide I believe multiple lane formation should be stopped.
Still, those who believe that lane driving is a solution, just imagine a situation:
I assume everyone would concur with the fact that there are 3 lanes in morning from crossings to Shaberi and similarly 3 lanes from Shaberi to crossings in evening. So, suppose 3 cars A, B, C (who's drivers have pledged lane driving and not to create multiple lanes) come out from crossings glass door with some time gap in morning and they see 3 lanes are already there.
Now the Q is how these 3 car drivers will decide which is that single lane that they need to follow. With normal human tendency each one would try to get into a lane with shortest length and there starts the problem, multiple lanes... So, inadvertently and because they do not know which lane to follow they continue with multiple lanes..
So let's just keep patience OR change the time when we use this road OR regulate the traffic from NH-24 to a single lane or at max just 2 lanes. We crossings occupants are educated and understand the importance of lane driving but unfortunately cannot control traffic from NH-24

Today I had an argument with one of them who was in a white hyundai i10 bearing some UP number and coming from the temple road. The problem is that the person was confident that he was doing right by breaking rules. He did not have any guilt. I believe what we as citizens of the township should do is to note down the car nos. Of such people and publicize them on the respective groups so that these people at least feel some guilt.
I will start doing that from tomorrow. Shayad bhagwan inko buddhi de.

Dear Akhil
I too to what Nitesh said.we are being penalized as crossing republik residents for the convinience of outsiders.even I have seen crossing guards instructing the outside bikes n autos to take the route between prateek n assotech to move towards the pulia .I think making an alternate way exclusively for crossing citizens could help

>Many thanks for the update Akhilji. I live in GH7 and I use Gate No. 2 which is toward the temple and about 300 m from pulia. I have to go about 1 km in opposite direction towards Prateek and then 25-30 minutes towards pulia. Yesterday, I almost got penalized from a constable for coming from opposite direction when I went from Exotica towards pulia. He talked as if I was a pickpocket or a Bicycle thief and was angry at me if I have done crime of the century. Fortunately, one of his seniors intervened and let me go.

>All I want to say is, we the residents of crossing get to divert our routes in opposite direction, get penalized and harassed by police, and get stuck in a jam for half an hour just for the convenience of people from outside crossing going from Ghaziabad to NOIDA so that they can easily pass through our township to avoid any inconvenience at NH24 as I believe more than half of the vehicles at the jam are from outside crossing. Hopefully we will get rewarded for our deeds in this life. Instead of barricading and diverting paths for crossing residents, a barricade should be at entrance towards ABES college from 8:00 to 10:00 with entry to only those vehicles which are coming to Crossing. Broadening of pulia will only attract more and more traffic from Ghaziabad to NOIDA. Please correct me if I am wrong. I hope that I am wrong and situation do improve.

>>Looking into the critical subject issue on priority , once again CROMA Executive team had a detailed discussion with management team Crossings Infrastructure Pvt. Ltd. ( hereinafter referred as CIPL) on Saturday i.e. 1.09.2012. After a detailed discussion on many points from the charter of demands update on critical point of Shaberi Pulia and connectivity to Noida, the following response in point wise as under:
>>· 6 Mtr pulia design is passed for construction. CIPL has limited role now except to pay for its construction only.Construction will be done by U.P.Irrigation Department and expense will be bear by CIPL management
>>· Tentatively Construction will be start by Oct'12
>>· Divider on road, message of one way near temple and on shaberi side will be placed soon to educate traffic. One way traffic should be followed by residents as per timings i.e. Morning -8.00.- 10.30 A.M, Evening : 5 - 8.00 P.M.
>>· Connectivity with Gaur city via Crossings Republik from road behind GH-07 society can be expected to get resolved in a year as its require lot of paper work and follow up work from different authorities due to land ownership issue.
>>It is a request to all the residents that while using the route from Crossings Republik towards Noida Extension and vice-versa, please follow single lane to avoid jam in peak hrs. Please bear in mind that no one else will come, its we who all have to make the system in place to make our life better.
