Metro project is not at all a mistake. I am not so sure if any alternative projected in the article could even attempt in solving the congestion problems. It would be very very helpful to commuters and make them come to metro more if a)feeder bus is provided to the metro stations, and b) a common ticket policy is adopted for the buses and metro. Also, maintenance should not be a big problem if advertising place is cleverly planned and organized. The potential is immense for all- the commuters, they have a faster and punctual mode of transport, the authority, they have floating money and the Delhi people in general, they have a cleaner and quiter city.
