Abstract

 The study is to assess the effect of increasing traffic Burdon on present road structures and Traffic management system. For study purpose, Amravati-Paratwada urban Highway passing through Panchvati Area of Amravati, Maharashtra is selected with corridor length of 3.9kms. This study  includes collection of data from site by means of manual observations, previously available survey/video/photo records. Data collected is analysed by suitable delay models which suits heterogeneous traffic conditions in spite of choosing traditional models for Delay analysis. Collected data in terms of volume count of a peak hour traffic is then converted into passenger car unit factors. The study  uses VISSIM simulation software model to compare delays in forms personal delays, overall delays at each individual intersection in the corridor by means of nodal analysis. Along with delays, queue lengths forming has also been studied under this study. signalized intersection's  signal cycle redesigning and phase redesigning is  suggested after analysis of present and suggested scenario to cope up with the vehicular delays and congestion problem in the selected corridor.
