National Highway Authority of India currently is planning to build a citizen facing interface which can cater to all highway related needs of NH commuters. NHAI already has an Android mobile application called Sukhaad Yatra (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rsawh.nhia&hl=en_IN&gl=US) which needs to be upgraded and advanced further.

Citizens are invited to share their ideas on how the Sukhad Yatra app can be improved with additional features/ integrations to better service the needs of citizens. The end outcome is to improve the experience of NH commuters and build a robust medium of 2-way communication.

The tool will not be limited to but can cover the following areas:
● Informing users of construction and maintenance activities
● Allowing users to register complaints pertaining to the condition of the highway or highway activities such as toll (for eg. If wait times for a toll gate are too long or if FasTag is not working at a gate)
● Allow users to rate highways on various characteristics of the highway around their experience as a rider (on both negative and positive characteristics of experience, for example whether the NH offers a scenic route or view)
● Allow user to access emergency and first response services on the highway
● Allow users to access information on wayside amenities, petrol pumps, EV stations etc. Information about location of facilities along the route can be searched on Google Maps but this is hard to access for non smartphone users.
● Allow users to report traffic congestion, accidents, debris, toll-relates issues, request EV charging points etc to local command centres (Eg. Waze)
● The interface should be able to cater to user-needs of commuters with and without smartphones
● The interface should have a strong focus on UX, intuitive and centred around the day-to-day needs and experience of highway users.

The interface can also operate as a platform through which multiple existing private and public applications can link to such as NH’s toll free number, toll management system etc or travel related apps (MapMyIndia, Google Maps etc) which already have a high user-base. The platform should leverage strengths of existing IT applications and not reinvent where necessary.

The design should cater to all kinds of NH users such as:
● Commercial (trucking etc) who may or may not have a smartphone and a user design which caters to their needs
● Personal long-distance commuter which may not be as frequent but may have access to smartphones
● Local residents who live around the highways and use it more frequently than private long distance commuters

Submissions to this can be in the form of app mock-ups/ prototypes, presentations, concept notes on platform and other interfaces, list of desired features by commuters etc.

Tha last date of submission of ideas is 15th June 2022.

On road's carriageway white border lines are marked; beyond these lines i.e on the shoulder part of roads nowadays vehicles are being parked as a result pedestrians bound to walk on vehicle carriageway which leads to traffic congestion or accidents. Can we stop such parkings where we do not have pedestrian walkways (footpaths). Pedestrians gets first priority on road, this is being taught by driving schools in developed countries. There are many such examples which I come across from old movies, people stand in queues to board a bus in bus stops, bus conductor restricts people boarding the bus to avoid standing travel, Buses are designed with doors to avoid footboard travel, streets without encroachments, scooters are parked inside the house using portable wooden ramps, more importantly people speak with respect hanji, nahiji, heyboy jarah dekke chelo etc., I think lack of proportionate development in infrastructure is the main cause of many issues today we are facing.

1. We must give priority for making our roads wider & better. After this only, we can do better in other fields.

2. We should give importance to public transport, use of private vehicles must be last resort.

3. Atleast, 2-3 NH are required to connect out boundaries with other states.

4. GOI should talk to Govt of Shri Lanka to connect both countries by sea link.

5. There must be transparency of system for NHAI linked portals.

Thank You!

सर हम हर रोज़ बड़ी बड़ी सड़कों का हाइवे का निर्माण कर रहे हैं परन्तु हम सभी लोग को पर्यावरण के बारे में भी गंभीर रूप से सोचना होगा। मेरा आपसे निवेदन है कि कोई ऐसा नियम बनाए कि हर व्यक्ति पेड़ लगाने के साथ साथ उसकी तब तक सुरक्षा करे जब तक कि वह बड़ा नहीं हो जाता। इसके अलावा मेरी गुजारिश है कि सभी मंत्रि विधायक आदि राजनीतिज्ञ सभी लोग पेड़ लगाने का अभीयान शुरू कर दीजिए इससे एक फायदा तो पर्यावरण को होगा तो दूसरा जनता जब उस पेड़ को बड़ा होते हुए देखेगी तो इसमें उन राजनीतिक लोगों की छवि और भी अच्छी हो जायेगी।

NHAI के प्रत्येक हाइवे के प्रत्येक टोल प्लाजा पर एक सर्वसुविधायुक्त एम्बूलेंस हमेशा उपलब्ध होनी चाहिए , जो हाईवे पर होने वाली सडक दुर्घटना में तत्काल मदद के लिए उपलब्ध हो।
यह सत्य है कि सड़क हादसे रोके नहीं जा सकते लेकिन सही समय पर उपचार उपलब्ध हो जाए तो हम सड़क हादसे पीड़ित व्यक्ति का जीवन जरूर बचा सकते हैं।
हाइवे पर सड़क दुघर्टना के समय अधिकतर देखने में आया है कि उपचार के आभाव में सड़क दुघर्टना में घायल व्यक्ति को जान से हाथ धोना पड़ा।।
इसलिए नेशनल हाईवे के प्रत्येक हाइवे के टोल प्लाजा पर एक सर्वसुविधायुक्त एम्बूलेंस हमेशा उपलब्ध हो।।
धन्यवाद 🙏🏻

नेशनल हाईवे के संबंध में यह बताना अत्यंत आवश्यक है कि सर्दियों के मौसम में हाईवे पर सामान्यता दुर्घटना देखने को मिलता है इसका कारण यह है कि हाईवे पर पर्याप्त मात्रा में संकेतक तथा संकेतक लाइटें का प्रयोग नहीं किया जाता अतः कहीं-कहीं पर जहां पर अधिक दूरी होने के कारण सुविधा मुहैया नहीं करा जा सकता वहां पर हाईवे पर संकेतक सिंबल ओं का प्रयोग किया जाना अत्यंत आवश्यक है जिसे की दुर्घटना से बचा जा सके

For every 15 Kilometres NHAI can create a small rest zone where Senior citizens, Pregnant women, and Physically Challenged people can get down to relax and continue their journey. This rest zone should have a mini pharmacy, toilet facility and room with chairs to relax. This will help sick people travelling long distance on road to take adequate rest and food and then continue their journey. Drivers can also get benefitted. A nominal fee to use this facility can be collected and the amount can be used for the maintenance. Unemployed youths can be appointed to manage these rest zones. NHAI should seriously consider this suggestion and implement it.
