Why Indian Cities aren't Walkable | A Quint Original Documentary
Walking is the most basic form of mobility but walkable infrastructure is non-existent in Indian cities. Unsafe and poor state of footpaths are pushing people to switch to motorised vehicles. While pedestrians still are the biggest share of commuters, our cities give disproportionate importance to vehicles. So, why do Indian cities ignore pedestrians?In this documentary, we go around different cities, speak to experts, look at data, and try to unpack the issue that invariably affects every urban Indian.
