| dc.description.abstract | The road from Panthapath to Russel Square is one of the busiest urban routes, connecting
multiple key areas and serving a high volume of vehicles daily. This Traffic Volume Study aims
to analyze the traffic flow, congestion patterns, and the effectiveness of the current infrastructure
on this route. The study involved manual and automated traffic counting at key locations along the
road during different time intervals, including both peak and off-peak hours. The results revealed
that traffic volume significantly increases during morning and evening peak hours, with a
noticeable concentration of passenger vehicles and two-wheelers. The study also identified
congestion hotspots, particularly at intersections near Russel Square, and areas with a higher
frequency of accidents. The findings suggest that the road’s capacity is being exceeded, leading to
significant delays, especially during rush hours. Based on the study, several recommendations are
proposed, including road widening, improved traffic signal coordination, expansion of public
transport, and the establishment of dedicated lanes for buses and cyclists. The implementation of
these measures is expected to improve traffic flow, reduce congestion, and enhance overall road
safety along this critical urban corridor.
