Conceptualization of the Plan

Transportation system directs urban development pattern. Performance of the transportation system largely influences the economy and social progress of an area. It provides mobility of people, goods and services to their destination. The system also maintains linkages with other sections of development as a sustainable development. The Transportation and Traffic Management Plan cover scope of improvement of the existing network including system and plan proposals. The proposals on improvement and new development focuses the planning area up to the year 2031.

Preparation of the Plan

In order to identify major causes of the congestion and nature of the problem of transportation networks, a number of tasks undertakes. Those tasks include traffic volume counting at both directions. Speed and delay studies, Origin – Destination (O-D) survey at major traffic generating intersections count using a number of surveyors. Consultation with the stakeholders regarding generated problems emphasize as primary importance. Volume and movement pattern of people and goods within the planning area collects through a series of surveys and O-D survey.

The transportation and traffic management issues covers Banaripara Pourashava. The study also includes Existing Conditions of Transportation Facilities, Roadway Characteristics and Functional Classification. Intensity of Traffic Volume, Traffic Congestion and Facilities for Pedestrians analyze for preparing a modernize transport plan. Roadway Capacity Deficiencies, Operational, Safety, Signal and Other Deficiencies calculate for smooth physical development of roadway. Plan for Road Network Development, Proposal for Improvement of the Existing Road Networks, incorporation of Transportation Facilities deliver the outcome of Travel Demand Forecasting for Next 20 Years. Development of Facilities for Pedestrian, Bicycle and Rickshaw, Other Transportation facilities support to prepare a well-furnished plan. Effective implementation of the plan includes Transportation System Management Strategy, Regulations to Implement the Transportation Plan, Implementation, Monitoring, Evaluation and Coordination of the Plan.
