If the government is successful in providing dedicated cycling tracks all along the roads in Tamil Nadu, then most of the middle-class youth would shift to cycling as their mode of personal transportation in an effort to minimalism. @actorvijay @CMOTamilnadu @TVKVijayHQ

Cycling is perceived as an unsafe mode of personal transportation in roads congested with motor vehicles. Dedicated cycling tracks would do magic aplenty. @actorvijay @CMOTamilnadu @TVKVijayHQ

@actorvijay @CMOTamilnadu @TVKVijayHQ Pioneers:
Chandigarh: Often highlighted as a model with an extensive network of over 200 km of dedicated, well-maintained cycle tracks running through its planned sectors. These are shaded and provide relatively safe, separated paths.

@actorvijay @CMOTamilnadu @TVKVijayHQ Pioneers:
Pune: One of the leaders, with over 90 km of cycle tracks built. It has a strong cycling culture and is frequently called one of India's most cycling-friendly cities.

@actorvijay @CMOTamilnadu @TVKVijayHQ Pioneers:
Pimpri-Chinchwad (near Pune): Over 50 km of cycle tracks, supported by strong policies aiming for high shares of walking/cycling/public transport trips. It has invested significantly in NMT (non-motorized transport) infrastructure.

@actorvijay @CMOTamilnadu @TVKVijayHQ Pioneers:
Nagpur: Developing an early-stage network of cycle tracks as part of urban mobility efforts in Maharashtra.

@actorvijay @CMOTamilnadu @TVKVijayHQ Pioneers:
Bengaluru: Has dedicated tracks (e.g., on roads like Race Course Road)

@actorvijay @CMOTamilnadu @TVKVijayHQ Pioneers:
Hyderabad: Features initiatives like India's first solar-roofed cycling track (around 23 km on the Outer Ring Road, bidirectional and shaded).

@actorvijay @CMOTamilnadu @TVKVijayHQ The pilot project of providing dedicated cycling tracks in Tamil Nadu, could begin in Chennai, that too from Lok Bhavan to Beach - stretch of road in the heart of Chennai. #CyclingTracks

@actorvijay @CMOTamilnadu @TVKVijayHQ @grok can you analyse the practical feasibility of the content in my tweets? Can you do budgeting also?
