The rise of E-rickshaw in suburban areas |
Posted: November 20, 2018 |
A good public transport system is beneficial for controlling pollution, decreasing traffic congestion and a reduction in road accidents as well as for saving our resources. Overall, it is responsible for improving the life quality of human resources of the country and at the same time protecting the environment from the pollution caused by the usage of private vehicles.
Public transport system administered by public transport corporation is limited to major cities only that offer the flexibility of having multiple public transport vehicles with broad transportation coverage.
On the contrary, the transportation needs of the people living in suburban areas and small towns remain unfulfilled with limited availability of public transport option in the absence of a strong local public transportation system constituted by the state as present in major cities. People living in suburban areas are either limited to use their private vehicles or were having the option to travel with the minimal number of overloaded buses and autos taking trips in their locality, that too are not available at a regular interval causing inconvenience of waiting for long hours to reach their destination.
The scenario improved quickly after the arrival of e-rickshaw. With the growing number of e-rickshaw, the public transport system in suburban areas has taken a substantial leap forward thanks to the e-rickshaw manufacturers in India.
For the public, the e-rickshaw offers low travel fare, ease of availability, the safety of travel, comfortable sitting without overloading of passengers, etc. For the operators, it offers low purchase cost, low cost of operations, minimal maintenance and repairs. The electric rickshaw battery provides a run of 100 km with a single charge along with providing a safe and secure vehicle for operating.
Hence, it is a win-win situation for both the parties along with helping the state to develop a dense public transport system in such areas. The e-rickshaw transportation solution for suburban areas is not only limited to passenger transport but also providing great help for logistics industry that used to struggle with limited transportation options for local transportation in suburban areas.
