  • Executive Summary
    EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 0.1 BACKGROUND Bangalore metropolitan area covers 137 zones of the City Corporation area and the remaining 22 Zones are in Urban Municipalities covering an area of about 531 sqkm. Population of Bangalore city, as per 2001 census, is 5.67 million out of which 4.5 million is in the city Municipal Corporation area. Bangalore at present has more than 1.6 million registered vehicles out of which 1.2 million are two- wheelers constituting 75% of the total registered vehicles. The total vehicle population is increasing at the rate of 10% per annum, while the two-wheelers alone are increasing at 17% per annum. BMTC buses are the main mode of public transport in Bangalore city. BMTC has a fleet of about 2450 buses, which carry about 22.28 lakh trips per day, while other buses (Factory buses/Chartered buses, etc.) carry about 1.65 lakh trips per day. The other major mode of public transport is auto - rickshaw which carry about 2.2 lakh trips per day. Transport Problems Like any other metropolitan city in India, Bangalore also faces many transport problems. Low travel speed, high accident rate involving fatalities and increased vehicular pollution are mainly due to: ♦ Narrow roads with heavy traffic congestion; ♦ Little possibility of expansion of road network due to heavily built-up areas; ♦ Frequent traffic jams at numerous road intersections; ♦ 75% of composition of traffic consisting of low occupancy vehicles, viz. two-wheelers; ♦ Very high number of auto rikshaws; ♦ High parking demand due to proliferation of personalised vehicles; and ♦ Over-crowded buses with long routes.

  • Page 172 of 1031 Comprehensive Traffic & Transportation Plan for Bangalore Chapter 6 –Future Demand Analysis and System Selection
    Page 172 of 1031 Comprehensive Traffic & Transportation Plan for Bangalore Chapter 6 –Future Demand Analysis and System Selection assignments (followed by skims for next iteration). It was found that to achieve convergence, eight iterations were required. 6.2.36.2.36.2.3 The Do-minimum assignment was carried out to identify the bottlenecks, over capacity links etc. With this it is possible to identify the major constraints in the network. Once the constraints are identified it is easy to formulate schemes to overcome the problems. New infrastructure, traffic management plans, and policy controls can be worked out with the help of identified schemes. The calibrated deterrence functions for various modes and various purposes have been adopted. Forecast test of each scheme will be assessed against the Do- Minimum assignment. 6.2.46.2.46.2.4 For the Do Minimum Scenario, the expected modal split for the year 2025 is given in Table 6.1Table 6.1.6.1 This table shows that the modal split in favour of public/mass transport will fall to about 29% by 2025 against base year modal split of 47%. Share of trips by personalized motor vehicles such as car and two wheelers is expected to increase from 40% to 60%. This is expected to increase the traffic volumes on the most of the road network beyond its capacity. The desireline diagram for private vehicles for 2025 is shown in FigureFigure 6.16.1. Peak hour traffic assignment on the road network is shown in Figure 6.26.2.6.2 These figures indicate heavy radial movements to the core of the city and also circumferential movements.
