Abstract:

Cities population and area is increasing gradually. Chennai is facing a multitude of issues such as severe congestion; deteriorating air quality; increasing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from the transport sector; increasing road accidents; and an exploding growth in the number of private vehicles (largely motorcycles). With the urban population projected to more than double in the next generation, the situation could easily get out of control and affect Cities’ economic development efforts unless remedial measures are soon taken. By providing free public transport for all in the city could reduce personalized transportation and avoid congestion in the city and enhance the air quality of the city. This paper describes about the public transport and alternate fuels which reduces greenhouse gas emissions and decarbonizes the transport sector of Mumbai and Chennai City.
