OBSERVATIONS & INFERENCES
1. The hours of maximum traffic inflow & outflow corresponds with that of the
business as well as office hours hence it can be said that this road is majorly
used for work purposes.
2. The inflow of two wheelers is 13% more than the outflow whereas inflow of
car/jeep is % less than the outflow. Hence it can be said that this road is mostlyused by people having two wheelers for moving towards bazar and 4wheelers
for coming inside the city.
3. During the peak hours there is maximum inflow & outflow of volume share of
private & fast moving vehicles.
4. The outflow of traffic is less than the inflow in this road.
5. Goods vehicles has only 5% to 6% volume share as compared to the private
vehicles being about 90%, hence it can be said that this road is majorly used for
work purposes.6. Very high number of public transport movement can be observed on this road.
7. But with the increasing trend of trade and commercial activities observed in the
city this road can see increased traffic inflow as well as outflow which would
demand for wider road in the future.

TRIP BY MODE
HOUSEHOLD TRIP CHARACTERISTICS
Travel characteristic is the study of various
trip typologies which would enable us to
understand the pattern of movement &
hence help in further future
developments.It includes study of trip typologies
followed by the study of characteristics of
these typologies which includes mode of
travel & time of travel with some other
added attributes like income, sex
occupation, household status, driving
status & vehicle ownership. All these
leading to understanding the character ofmovement of people.
I have don this analysis based on the
survey done in the ward 12.
