cORRIdOR ScREEN LINE ANALYSIS

An imaginary line splitting the study area into two parts within the external cordon is called Screen line.

Natural or physical barriers like rivers, canals, railway line, etc. are taken as screen line.

Based on house interview survey, trip assignments are made which would give the volume of traffic on different routes, from which the trips going across the screen lines can be determined.

This is cross checked with the data on counts made at the screen line locations.

A screen line survey identifies major traffic movements between two areas divided by a screen line.

URBAN FORM

The spatial pattern or arrangement of individual elements such as buildings, streets, parks and other land uses as well as social groups, economic activities and public institutions within an urban area are recognized as the urban form.

Various urban forms

Finger type
