Noida elevated road to ease traffic pangs04-Nov-2012The Noida authority has decided to build an elevated road from Chilla village (Mayur Vihar I in Delhi) to the Mahamaya Flyover. The elevated road is expected to also help ease traffic on the Outer Ring Road and decongest Noida roads. The move by the Noida authority is aimed at Driving at BIC is enjoyable23-Oct-2012New Delhi: Formula 1 driver Jenson Button said that he really enjoys driving at the Buddh International Circuit (BIC) in Greater Noida, where he finished second last year at the Indian Grand Prix. “The Indian Grand Prix went well for me last year – I had an absolutely straightforward drive, running second from start to finish. It’s a circuit I like: it has a good feel to it, and you can tell it’s quite different from the normal places we visit,” the 2009 driver’s World Champion was quoted saying by the official Formula 1 website. “There are a couple of unusual factors: firstly, the approaches to turns three and four are incredibly wide – almost like a motorway – in order to stimulate different lines into the corner and encourage overtaking. I hear that’s an element that’ll be carried over to the new track at Austin too,” said the McLaren driver. “Secondly, the combination of turns 10 and 11 is also pretty special – it’s a huge, bowl-shaped double-apex right-hander, a bit like Spoon at Suzuka. It’s unusual for a new circuit to have such fast corners and it’s really enjoyable when you get the car hooked up through there. I think we can have a good weekend there – I’m already looking forward to it.” Team principal Martin Whitmarsh also praised the circuit, stating it has the potential of becoming a classic event. Sahara Force India on a steady track?23-Oct-2012It was a big moment for Indian motorsports in 2008 when one got the first glimpse of Force India VJM01, with the historic Gateway of India in Mumbai serving as the backdrop. A consortium led by Vijay Mallya and Michiel Mol bought the Spyker F1 team for £90 million in October 2007, and when Adrian Sutil and Giancarlo Fisichella lined up at the 2008 Australian Grand Prix in Melbourne, India were finally on the F1 map. Over the next five years, the team has certainly come a long way – from the back of the grid to firmly ensconcing itself in the middle. Force India, which started off with an updated version of the Spyker F8-VIIB chassis with Ferrari engines, went through 29 races without scoring a point before making its presence felt at the 2009 Belgian GP with a historic pole. And Fisichella didn’t let the pole go waste with a second-place finish. It was followed by Sutil’s fourth-place finish in the next race, the Italian GP. Those were the only high points for the team that season as it could manage only 13 points to finish a poor ninth in the constructors’ championship. Between 2009 and 2010, the team made remarkable progress and much credit for that goes to technical director James Key. Key was part of the Silverstone-based outfit since 1998 in its original incarnation of Jordan and he mainly focused on the aerodynamic development of the car. Sahara India Pariwar bought 42.5% stake in the team for $100 million last year and the team, renamed Sahara Force India (SFI), hasn’t looked back since. They currently lie seventh in constructors’ standings with 89 points. Force India driver Paul Di Resta believes ‘continuity’ has been the key to team’s improved showing. “When a team starts to grows, the infrastructure grows along with it. At SFI, the personnel have remained the same in the last two years. We have been focusing on smaller, but key, areas of the car and getting the benefits,” Di Resta told TOI on Monday. Andrew Green is the current technical director of the team and Di Resta believes the VJM05 is vastly different from VJM01. “The aerodynamics of the car is working a lot better now, and the balance has also improved,” Di Resta’s teammate, Nico Hulkenberg, added. With the Airtel Indian Grand Prix less than a week away, SFI drivers have a lot in their minds, particularly the financial problems dogging the team’s owner, Mallya. Will that affect the mindset of the drivers? “These are two different things. We are part of the racing team based in UK and these are issues not for us to comment on. When you are strapped in the car you drive as fast as you can without thinking about anything else,” Hulkenberg said. Both drivers consider the India GP ’special’ though. “It is definitely a special race given what India is to this team. Awareness of F1 has definitely grown in India and it was nice to see the amount of support we had last year. It’s not often that you see the whole country cheering for an individual team,” Di Resta added. India Connect The world always remembers anything ‘first’, and for India, Narain Karthikeyan will always remain the country’s first F1 driver. Seven years after making his F1 debut with Jordan at the 2005 Australian GP, Narain will be the sole Indian driver at this Sunday’s Indian GP-this time for team HRT. His only point-scoring finish was a fourth place at the 2005 US Grand Prix, where only six cars competed. After 2005, Narain spent six years away from F1 before getting a Hispania drive last year. In 2012, the Chennai driver finally got a chance to drive for an entire season with HRT. Authority starts drive to decongest Pari Chowk17-Oct-2012GREATER NOIDA: In a bid to control the increasing traffic chaos at Pari Chowk in Greater Noida, the Authority, with help from the traffic police, has begun a crackdown down on all private buses and shared autos that park illegally at the busy junction. Additional traffic cops have been stationed at the busy roundabout to challan offenders and ensure that the area remains snarl free through the day. The Authority has also directed the Uttar Pradesh State Road Transport Corporation (UPSRTC) to ensure that its transport vehicles stick to the schedule and that only one bus stops at a time at the designated shelter to avoid chaos. The Authority has further directed that all UPSRTC buses follow their designated route via the Expo mart. Commuters often find themselves stuck in traffic jams at Pari Chowk and its adjoining areas mainly because the area is completely encroached by three-wheelers and private as well as roadways buses. “We have received many complaints from residents about how buses stop at the junction without following any schedule and keep waiting for passengers even after their seating capacity is full,” said Rama Raman, CEO, Greater Noida Authority. “The traffic chaos is made worse by the fact that the area is heavily encroached upon by private buses and shared autos, many of which do not even have valid permits. We have decided to crack down on errant drivers to minimize this congestion,” he said. The UPSRTC, on its part, has decided to add more buses to its recently launched services that cater to residential sectors in Greater Noida to ensure that fewer buses need to stop at Pari Chowk. As per the new service that UPSRTC launched four months back, 20 buses which used to pick up passengers only from Pari Chowk to go to Noida or Delhi have begun circulating within residential and internal sectors across the city. “Passengers, who earlier needed to come from their homes or offices to Pari Chowk to catch a bus to Noida or Delhi, can now get a bus from near their homes. Currently, these buses go to areas like Sector P-3 near the Senior Citizens Society, P-7 near Judges Colony, Jalvayu Vihar, Amity Chowk, Jagat Farms and Knowledge Park,” a UPSRTC official said. “According to the new route, these buses do not need to touch Pari Chowk anymore. Instead, after picking up passengers from their designated sectors, they go to the Noida-Greater Noida Expressway via the underpass near Yamuna Expressway Authority. We will add more buses on this route to reduce the congestion at Pari Chowk,” he added. Yamuna e-way region master plan passed17-Oct-2012GREATER NOIDA: Paving way for major urban development work in the region around the Yamuna Expressway, which connects Greater Noida with Agra, the NCR Planning Board has approved the first phase of the Master Plan 2031 of the Yamuna Expressway Industrial Development Authority (YEIDA). According to the master plan, the Authority will develop the area up to Jewar, which will include 584 sq km of Gautam Budh Nagar and Bulandshahr districts in phase-I. The plan has now been forwarded to the Uttar Pradesh state government for final approval after which it will be implemented. As per the Master Plan 2031, the population in the Yamuna Expressway area will be around 35 lakh in the next two decades. The Authority, therefore, has proposed residential development in a total area of 25,000 hectares. The plan includes 18 group housing units, whereby plots between 100 and 200 acres have been allotted by the Authority to private developers along with another 21,000 individual plots. The plan for phase-I also plans to connect the region with others through expressways like the Eastern Peripheral Expressway and the Ganga Expressway. A 130m-wide railroad corridor connecting it with Khurja in Bulandshahr and Palwal in Haryana has been planned. To connect the sectors with adjoining regions such as Khurja, Bulandshahr and Palwal, the Authority has proposed to construct a 120m-wide road. The roads connecting YEIDA sectors with Greater Noida and Noida will be 130 metres wide. The Authority has also allocated more than 20 sectors for commercial development. Other salient features of phase-I of the plan include a “world class” Sports City, an inter-state bus terminus, a transport nagar, two power generation plants, each having a capacity of 2,000 megawatts and procurement of Ganga water for residents. “The area between Greater Noida and Jewar covered in the first phase of the master plan includes 133 villages spread across an area of 58,000 hectares. Twenty-five percent of this area has been earmarked as dedicated green area, 20% has been earmarked for industrial development and 9% for institutional development. The master plan proposes a holistic development plan for the entire area with an emphasis on setting up industrial hubs,” a senior Authority official said. According to officials, the second phase of the master plan will cover the area between Jewar and Agra.
