GENERAL The Government of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa through Urban Policy & Planning Unit (UPU), P&D Department has decided to develop Traffic Management plans to identify major weaknesses and constraints in the current traffic management and operation system of four major cities of KPK (Peshawar, Mardan, Kohat and Abbottabad) and to device improvements required to make system efficient and safe. The Urban Policy & Planning Unit (UPU) of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa has assigned M/s AAA Engineering Consultants (Pvt.) Ltd (hereinafter referred to as the “Consultant”) to develop Traffic Management plans for the four cities of KPK (Peshawar, Mardan, Kohat and Abbottabad). This Final Draft Report on Traffic Management Plan pertains to Abbottabad city. Abbottabad city is located in Orash valley in Hazara region of the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, in northeastern Pakistan. Total area of the city is 1,969 km2, with a population of 1,430,238. It is situated at 110 km (68 miles) north of the capital Islamabad, 130 km (81 miles) from Rawalpindi and 150 km (93 miles) northeast of Peshawar. Its altitude is 1,260 meters (4,134 ft) and is the capital of Abbottabad District. Azad Jammu & Kashmir lies to the east of the city. The city is well known throughout Pakistan for its pleasant weather, high-standard educational institutions and military establishments. It remains a popular hill station attracting hundreds of thousands of tourists every year. Location map of Abbottabad is shown in Fig. 1.1. (Imperial Gazetteer of India, 1931). 1.2. BACKGROUND OF THE PROJECT Over the last decade, rapid increase in urban population and increase in private vehicle ownership and its usage has caused severe pressure on the infrastructure of the city and its condition is deteriorating each day. Lack of traffic management plan is one of the major issues in this context. These issues include absence of proper parking facilities, improper enforcement from the concerned authorities, and improper working of signaling 1 system. Other major issue is the absence of proper public transport system. The current public transport system is inadequate, fragmented and consist of multitudes of small Para- transit modes which are not sufficient to fulfill the required demand. The major roads of the city are subjected to acute traffic congestion, high accidents rate and increasing air pollution. The disorder condition of traffic is negatively affecting the efficiency and performance of the existing road infrastructure. Such aspects of traffic congestion cause increase in social costs (i.e. increase in travel time and cost, increase in energy consumption and environmental pollution) which put extra burden on city resources as well as country economy. The increase in motorized traffic and absence of traffic management plans also affects the safety of non-motorized modes users. The prosperity of residents and economic growth of a city lies with the good and efficient transportation infrastructure. Therefore, it is required to diagnose the root causes of the above mentioned transportation problems and to identify their appropriate solutions that should ensure the sustainability of the city. Figure 1.1: Location Map of Abbottabad (Source: Wikipedia) 1.3. OBJECTIVE OF THE PROJECT In order to seek appropriate solutions to the traffic congestion and increasing traffic problems; it is important to find the root causes of these problems. For this purpose a detailed traffic survey of this
