Abstract: Life is very insterting but once special when traffic is there village as well as Vistors get Distruted from actually life of kas pathar with quite clam and fresh air.
On day of traffic jam as very narrow road with minimal space adjoining it, no laybys hence quite incapable of dealing with what was by now an army of vehicles and hundreds of over enthusiastic tourists.
Some blamed this as a Sunday effect but whatever the reason traffic management must be more effective. Here is my two-paise worth:
1. Limit number of vehicles to be allowed, based on the area available for parking- particularly on Sundays. Those desirous of visiting the plateau must register a day prior or pay a toll for the same. I am told that the number of vehicles entering Tadoba sanctuary per day is limited at different gates. A similar strategy can be adopted here. This road leads to Bamnoli and Vasota ahead hence such a rule can hamper their travel plans.
2. Do not allow private vehicles at all. Provide sufficient and frequent buses from Satara and to Kas on holidays for the duration of the flowering season.
I am told the story is entirely different on working days.
At people move out of car and buses they walked all over the flowers, plucked or uprooted the delicate blooms.
This traffic jam indicates that many visitors vist the place .But people feel happy and forget the tranffic jam and enjoy the nature.
