Trip generation rates TRAFFIC & TRANSPORT
Trip purpose and Temporal distribution TRAFFIC & TRANSPORT
Zone wise Trip distribution TRAFFIC & TRANSPORT Demands more inter-zonal accessibility (mostly by industrial workforce)
Mode of travel Slow moving TRAFFIC & TRANSPORT Public Transit Private Mode
Age wise Travel behavior TRAFFIC & TRANSPORT
Intermixing of slow and fast moving vehicles Modal share of slow moving vehicles 77% Congested flow regime and low operating speed GT Road (Rly Stn to Curzon Gate) & BC Road (Raniganj Bazar area) Goods movement On-street parking, loading / unloading Encroachment of vehicular carriageway Rickshaw Stand Shops Others [Garbage vats, Transformers, Statues etc] Lack of proper geometry Restricted sight distance Carriageway alignment Intersections Road dividers Major Issues TRAFFIC & TRANSPORT
Vehicular – Pedestrian conflict Inadequate pedestrian pathways Improper provision at intersections Public transit in/outlets on busy urban arterials Ribbon development of shopping activities Rail – Road conflict ROB near Rly Station Capacity restrained Dilapidated condition Kalna road crossing Traffic management Circulation management Directional restriction / Temporal prohibition / Turning restriction Signaling Visibility / Signage Major Issues TRAFFIC & TRANSPORT
Supply side management Horizontal expansion Augmenting the existing road links Creating new roads Creating at-grade parking facilities Vertical expansion Grade separated movement Parking towers Better geometry Correcting road alignment Improving intersection geometry Better traffic management Signaling Guided Traffic circulation (One-way movement / disallowing right turns etc.) Future Approach TRAFFIC & TRANSPORT
Demand side management Alter spatial structure of travel movement Alter modal choice of travel behavior Introduction of Para transit [4 seater and 8 seater Auto Rickshaws] Settlement limits [maximum route distance less than 10 kms] Population and Passenger-km demand [ Approximately 25 Lakh P-Km in 2006] Greater occupancy rate than cycle rickshaw Higher operating speed Lower fare per Passenger-Km Can negotiate grades better Future Approach Transit Oriented Development TRAFFIC & TRANSPORT
Higher frequency than bus / minibus – greater patronage Greater penetration into catchment area Better maneuvering in narrow winding streets Lower accident rates Low capital for entry Higher employment Licensing issues Fuel and emission Route fixing Location of terminals Future Approach TRAFFIC & TRANSPORT
