When an ambulance can reach within 15 mins from airport to hospital for organ harvest, I think our traffic dept can plan this too. This might be harsh but share autos and autos should be regularised. Most of the traffic is done by them and I propose it. Lane discipline cannot be followed in our city as our roads are narrow so we could propose certain roads for only cars, only buses etc. And finally they all meeting in a wider road.

Smart Toilets shall be provided at each street with automatic cleaning function which is a must in a place like ours. Roads shall not be dug before 1 yr of laying. Atleast every dept should plan the digging works 1 yrs in advance.
3. Traffic - More than pollution, traffic shall be controlled. Proper one ways, different timings of schools and offices, traffic changes mornings and evenings can change the traffic condition of the city. Proper planning is required for the same.

Can be made functional by cleaning it and connecting it to the sea. Through which we can provide ferry rides for faster transportation and also as a major fresh water source. The main drawback of this cleaning would be to plug the cause rather than keep cleaning the canal. The canal cannot be cleaned unless we plug the source. Measures for the above shall be made for this. Moreover closed bins shall be placed all over the city, most of the bins are just overflowing with waste.

Install solar panel on rooftop of vehicles. At parking make a metallic lane on street so that it works as +ve and -ve terminals for the solar panel. A provision, when a person parks his car and give a command so that a metallic strip from his vehicle touches the metallic lane and completes the circuit. These are connected with solar cells who gets charged and the DC should converts into AC and can be transmitted . It will add great benefit to our environment & to develop smart cities.
