LOCATION PROBLEM IDENTIFIED MANAGEMENT MEASURES
AMEERPET BUS STOP SLOW TRAFFIC MOVEMENT RELOCATION OF BUS STOP DUE TO BUS STOP BUS STOP
MYTHRIVANAM JN. PEDESTRIAN CROSSING SEPARATE PHASE FOR PEDESTRAIN CROSSINGS INSTALL BULLBOUTS
MYTHRIVANAM JN. MINOR LEG EXPERIENCING GREEN TIME HAS TO BE MORE DELAY ALTERED
Page 38 MYTHRIVANAM – SR NAGAR
LOCATION PROBLEM IDENTIFIED MANAGEMENT MEASURES
MYTHRIVANAM BUS STOP HIGH SPEEDS OF THE INSTALL SPEED BREAKERS VEHICLES, PEDESTRAIN OR CUSHIONS OR A SPEED CROSSING HUMP FOOT OVER BRIDGE
SR NAGAR JN. SIGNAL JUMPING AT TYRE FLATTENING, AMEERPET TO KUKATPALLY LEG
SR NAGAR JN. DELAY AND QUEUE LENGTH CLOSE THE DIVIDER WHICH ARE GETTING INCREASED IS JUST 28M OF LENGTH FOR THE MINOR LEG Page 39 SR NAGAR - ESI
LOCATION PROBLEM IDENTIFIED MANAGEMENT MEASURES
ESI BUS STOP SLOWING DOWN OF SPEEDS MUST BE RELOCATED BECAUSE IT WAS LOCATED AFTER 300M VERY NEXT TO THE NARROWED ROAD AT DARGA.
ESI JN. SIGNAL JUMPING FROM THE TYRE FLATTENING. TWO WHEELERS.
Page 40 ESI - ERRAGADDA
LOCATION PROBLEM IDENTIFIED MANAGEMENT MEASURES
FRUIT MARKET ENCROACHMENTS AND SIDE ENCROACHMENTS NEED TO FRICTION. BE STRICTLY CLEARED
FRUIT MARKET ILLEGAL MEDIAN OPENING, ILLEGAL MEDIAN OPENING HAS TO BE CLOSED.
ERRAGADDA JN. PEDESTRIAN CROSSINGS MEDIAN HAS TO BE RAISED CAUSING INTERFERENCE TO TO SOME HEIGHT SO THAT THE THROUGH TRAFFIC. THE CROSSINGS WILL BE DONE AT THE ESI JN. Page 41 ERRAGADDA - KUKATPALLY
LOCATION PROBLEM IDENTIFIED MANAGEMENT MEASURES
MOOSAPET ENCROACHMENTS AND SIDE ENCROACHMENTS NEED TO FRICTION. BE STRICTLY CLEARED
MOOSAPET BUS STOP ILLEGAL MEDIAN OPENING ILLEGAL MEDIAN OPENING HAS TO BE CLOSED.
KUKATPALLY “Y” JN. BUSES ARE STOPPING ON THE BUS STOP HAS TO BE PASSENGERS REQUEST AT RELOCATED AT A DISTANCE THE JUNCTION OF 250M FROM THE “Y” JN. INSTALL A SPEED HUMP JUST BEFORE THE INTERSECTION SO AS TO REDUCE THE SPEED OF THE THROUGH TRAFFIC. Page 42 BULL BOUTS
Page 43 SPEED HUMPS
Page 44 CONCLUSIONS
¾ PEAK HOUR VOLUME IS HIGH AT SR NAGAR Jn & SR NAGAR – ESI MID BLOCK ¾ DELAY AT SR NAGAR IS HIGH & LESS AT SRINAGAR ¾ SR NAGAR – ESI HAVE HIGHEST CAPACITY ¾ AMEERPET – MYTHRIVANAM HAVE LESS CAPACITY ¾ KUKATPALLY – ERRAGADDA HAVE MORE DELAY ¾ ESI – SR NAGAR HAVE LESS DELAY ¾ 4 BOTTLENECKS IDENTIFIED WITH 2 ON EITHER SIDE
Page 45 • OVERALL CORRIDOR PERFORMANCE CAN BE IMPROVED WHEN, PEDESTRAIN CROSSINGS IMPROVED ENCROACHMENTS CLEARED
