Abstract
The trend of urbanization, population increase and the increase in nu mber of registered
vehicles induces pressure on tra ffic movements and makes living in urban area more difficult.
General congestion related data collection and congestion management measure is labor
intensive and a heavy investment is needed for these mitigation measures. La test technologies
like GIS will help to analyze th e live traffic situation and suggest the cost effective measures to
mitigate the congestion. This report briefly present the traffic problems (In the different
intersections in Mumbai), there causes and possible solutions to ensure free flo w of traffic. The
project attempts to quantify the intersection of huge traffic congestion and accidental damage.
Expected project output will be the recommendation for better traffic management using GIS tool
on the basis of data collected, analysis and design. GIS is effectively used for data collecting,
data analyzing and result displaying process.
