Prepaid Rickshaw Booth Pune

Prepaid Rickshaw Booth Pune

The rickshaw service in the city is receiving  a lot of flak over various issues, be it the refusal of service or rude behaviour. To overcome these problems, RTA is planning to restart a prepaid  rickshaw service within a month’s time. Learning from past experiences  RTA has developed a new software where details of all registered rickshaws  will be available.

The most common complaints registered against rickshaw drivers is of refusing service and over-charging. A pre-paid booth can  be an answer to all these problems. We have finalised the distance of  these spots from rickshaw booths and accordingly fixed up the fares. Apart from this, all the data pertaining to nearly 43000 rickshaws in the city such as the number of the vehicle, name of the owner has be loaded in the computers. This will help in tracking down any illegal rickshaw coming to the booth.”Shinde told, “ We are planning to start the first pre-paid service from Pune station by the end of this month. Nearly 250 rickshaws can be accommodated at this booth. Source:  Pune Mirror

The complaint should be then posted on the following address — Region Transport Officer, Sangam Bridge, Pune,” Patil said. “After receiving the letter, we call the complainant and the autorickshaw driver for a hearing. If the autorickshaw drivers are found guilty, RTO either collects fine from them or cancels their driving licences or permits. The entire process is completed in 15 to 30 days,” he said.
