Separate lanes for buses and goods transport on roads will be made, which will decongest roads and ease the traffic movement, Jain said. Mr. Jain further instructed the officials to revamp the aesthetics of roads, keeping environmental prospects in mind. He emphasised planting several varieties of trees alongside roads. This development will not only improve the aesthetics of the roads and give them a pleasant look but will also decongest them, ensuring easy and smooth flow of traffic, saving a lot of time, fuel, and money, the government said.
