4 TRAFFIC STUDIES AND ANALYSIS

4.1 GENERAL

Traffic is an important parameter in deciding the feasibility of a highway project as it provides the
sole revenue stream for the project. Hence traffic estimates assume further importance in
deciding the viability as well as the concession period.

Considering the above aspects comprehensive assessment of the existing traffic, travel pattern,
assessment of developments in the project influence area to work out the traffic growth rates are
made.
This chapter gives details about traffic surveys, secondary data collection, analysis of the data,
toll traffic forecast and estimates of revenue.

4.2 PROJECT ROAD DESCRIPTION

The Project Road (Yedshi-Aurangabad) is part of National Highway 211. NH-211 starts at
Sholapur and ends at Dhule. It passes through Sholapur, Osmanabad, Yedshi, Beed, Aurangabad,
Chalisgaon and ends at Dhule.
The project road (Yedshi-Aurangabad) starts from Yedshi at Km 100+000 (now modified as per
the NHAI guidelines to km 100+000 from earlier km 85+000 and passes through Beed, Gevrai,
Pachud, Adul, Chitegaon and ends at Aurangabad at Km 290+200. There is no railway line
crossing the project corridor. The project corridor lies entirely in the state of Maharashtra. The
project corridor passes through four districts viz., Osmanabad, Beed, Jalna and Aurangabad.
There are two major towns Beed and Gevrai along the corridor. Ribbon development at these two
towns along the corridor is more and hence may require bypasses at these locations.

4.3 HOMOGENEOUS SECTIONS

Detailed reconnaissance survey was done to understand the travel pattern on the project road.
Based on the reconnaissance survey, the project road is divided in to seven homogeneous
sections.

The passenger vehicles towards Shirdi from Hyderabad take diversion at Pardi Phata junction.
Hence the Yedshi-Pardi Phata junction is delineated as a homogeneous section. Traffic having
destinations at Ahmednagar, Kaje gets diverted at Manjursumba junction. Hence the section from
Pardi-Phata to Manjursumba is defined as a homogeneous section. Beed is a major town along
the corridor and hence the link between Manjursumba to Beed is defined as a homogeneous
section. NH-222 crosses the project corridor at Paidalsingi Junction (Km 195+400) and at Gadi
junction (km201.000). Hence the link between Beed and Gadi Junctions is defined as
homogeneous section. There is an existing road leading to Jalna at Wadi Godri junction and
hence the traffic to Jalna town will deviate at this location. SH-48 is crossing the project corridor
at Km 250+500. Hence the links between Gadi junction to Wadi Godri and Wadi Godri to SH-48
junction and SH-48 to Aurangabad are defined as homogeneous sections.

The details are given in Table 4.1 and Figure 4.1 shows the homogeneous sections.

4.4 TRAFFIC SURVEYS

The feasibility and design of any highway facility (or a corridor) basically depends on the volume
and intensity of traffic likely to flow on it in the design year. The estimation of the likely traffic
scenario in the design year on the highway/corridor proposed for improvement, with an optimal
lane configuration as in the present case, requires basic information regarding the current level of
traffic and its characteristics on it. Thus, the collection of basic data on the nature and extent at
present of different traffic parameters assumes greater significance.

The traffic on the Project corridor is characterized by a high degree of motorized vehicles which
consist of passenger vehicles such as cars, two wheelers, LCVs , Trucks. The non-motorized
vehicles comprise mostly of bicycles.

Traffic studies i.e. mode wise traffic estimates, travel pattern of passenger and freight (goods)
vehicles, speed and delay (travel time) characteristics and axle load characteristics. Traffic
surveys were conducted as per the guidelines given in IRC: SP-19. The locations and type of
various traffic surveys have been carefully finalized in consultation with the NHAI on the basis of
a reconnaissance survey as well as requirements of the RFP.

The traffic surveys undertaken for the project include:

Classified 7-day, 24 hours continuous traffic volume counts.


1 day 24 hour Intersection turning movement surveys
1 day 24 hour Origin-Destination surveys
Axle load surveys
Pedestrian and animal count surveys
Speed and Delay surveys
Goods focal point survey

4.4.1 Classified Volume Counts

As per Terms of Reference, Classified Traffic Volume Count (CTVC) (7 days 24 hour continuous)
surveys have to be done at 3 stations per 100 km. The length of Yedshi-Aurangabad section is
175 km. Hence, Consultants after detailed reconnaissance survey decided to conduct CTVC
surveys at 7 locations. The location and schedule of survey locations are given in Table 4.2.
Figure 4.2 shows the locations of the Traffic Volume Count stations.

4.4.2 Turning Movement Surveys

On the basis of the reconnaissance survey, nine intersections along the project road/corridor
were identified for conducting detailed turning movement surveys. Classified traffic surveys were
carried out for a period of 24 hours at all the intersections to capture morning and evening
patterns.

The passenger traffic coming from Andhra Pradesh takes diversion to Shirdi at Pardi Phata
junction (Km 114+400). The junction at Km 123 (Kuthalgiri) provides access to Bhum town. The
junction at Km 158 (Manjursumba junction) provides access to Kaje town. NH-222 gets
connected at from the eastern side at Paidalsingi junction (Km 195). NH-222 forms a junction on
the western side of the project corridor at Gadi Junction (Km 201). The road coming from Jalna
gets connected to the project corridor at Wadigodri (Km 231+800). The State Highway-48 gets
connected to the project corridor at Km 250+500. The Beed bypass (at Aurnagabad) forms at
junction with the project corridor at Km 292. Since these are major junction having access to the
important towns traffic surveys were conducted at these locations to understand the intensity of
traffic in order to decide about the type of junction.

The location and schedule of the traffic surveys is indicated in Table 4.3 & Figure 4.3.

4.4.3 O-D and Willingness to Pay & Axle load Survey

An Origin-Destination (O-D) and Willingness to Pay Survey was carried out adopting Road Side
Interviews (RSI) method at the four of the classified count stations for a continuous period of 24
hours along with the classified counts. Care was taken that these surveys were conducted on
week days. The location and schedule of the Origin-Destination survey is provided in Table 4.4
and Figure 4.2. The random sampling method was adopted for this survey. The local police
assistance was available to stop the vehicles for interviewing the road users. The RSI was carried
out through pre-planned and structured questionnaires suitable for computer analysis. Axle load
surveys were also simultaneously conducted to take advantage of the stopping of the vehicles
and collect the information about the weight of the vehicles.

The information collected during these surveys for passenger vehicles included the origin and
destination; purpose, occupancy and frequency of the trip. In the case of freight vehicles the
information sought included type and quantity of commodity being transported, in addition to
origin and destination, and frequency of travel on the route.

Information was sought from the road users on willingness to pay toll based on the
improvements proposed as per the National toll policy.

4.4.4 Pedestrian / Animal Count Surveys

Uncontrolled pedestrian or cattle movement across the highway results in traffic hazards and
accidents. Based on reconnaissance survey 7 locations are identified for Pedestrian / Cattle Count
surveys. Pedestrian surveys were organised at the indicated locations for peak hours (8 AM to
8 PM) on a representative working day. The number of pedestrians walking across the road was
observed at these locations. The survey locations and schedule is indicated in Table 4.5 and also
presented in Figure 4.4.

The survey formats used for carrying out the traffic surveys is presented in Volume-I,
Annexure 4.1.

Specially trained enumerators were used for counting traffic under the supervision of qualified
and experienced traffic engineers/supervisors. The data collected from the traffic surveys was
coded and entered into computer for its analysis and interpretation of results with respect to
existing traffic, travel pattern and for forecasting purposes. The traffic survey analysis is
presented in the following section.

4.5 TRAFFIC ANALYSIS

The number of vehicles for the CTVC stations near Beed (Km 188+000) being a major town is
highest. The next locations where the number of vehicles are high are near Pali (Km
166+40).

The locations Adul and Pimpalwadi are next in the order. The remaining locations have
relatively less number of vehicles and hence lesser PCUs.

Two wheelers , three wheelers and cars are major differentiating modes between these seven
stations. These modes being used for local travel the difference in numbers across the
stations is understandable.

Commercial vehicles are more or less uniform across the four counting stations.

The summary of the seven day volume counts are presented at Volume-I, Annexure 4.3.

4.5.1.2 Temporal Variation

Analysis has been carried out to understand the following parameters of temporal variation of
traffic on the project road.

Daily variation of Traffic


Hourly variation of Traffic
Peak Hour Factor (PHF)

The results and findings from the above analysis are presented below:

a. Daily Variation

The location wise daily variation of traffic both in terms of tollable traffic and non-tollable traffic is
presented in Figure 4.5 to 4.18.

Figure 4.18: Daily Variation in PCUs Km 277+000

The number of tollable vehicles changes slightly across the days of the week.

Toll able vehicles are highest at Km 188+000 near Pendgaon and lowest at Km 146+000 near
Chausala. Non tollable vehicles are highest at Km 188+000 near Pendgaon and lowest at Km
234+000 near Wadi Godhri.

When compared in terms of PCUs the tollable vehicles far outweigh the non tollable vehicles.
This is mainly due to the prevalence of higher percentage of commercial vehicles i.e. Trucks.

b. Hourly Variation

Similar to daily variation, analysis has also been carried out for hourly variation. The hourly
variations will be useful in the Capacity and LOS analysis, in planning various facilities, like,
number of toll lanes at the toll plaza, rest area, etc. The hourly variations in traffic (in Vehicles
per Day) observed at all the seven count stations on the Project Road have been presented in
Figure 4.19 to Figure 4.25.

The passenger vehicles have distinct morning and evening peaks. The volumes decrease to
lower levels during the night times as expected.

The commercial vehicles are more or less uniform through out the day across all the locations
when compared in terms of number of vehicles.

The slow moving vehicles are more or less constant through out the day.

c. Peak Hour Factor (PHF)

Hourly variations observed in traffic at all the seven count locations have been analyzed for PHFs
(Peak Hour Flow as a percentage of the total day flow), and are summarized in the following
Table 4.9.

Table 4.9: Peak Hour Factors Observed on the Project Road


Existing Km Peak Hour Peak Hour Flow, PCU PHF, %
Km 105+000 07:00-08:00 1,010 7.4 %
Km 146+000 20:15-21:15 842 7.1 %
Km 166+400 10:45-11:45 1,161 6.6 %
Km 188+000 10:00-11:00 1,220 6.1 %
Km 215+000 17:00-18:00 1,162 6.6 %
Km 234+000 06:45-07:45 783 6.4 %
Km 277+000 15:30-16:30 1,089 6.7 %

The above PHFs represent a nearly uniform traffic distribution. The PHF in the range 6.1 to 7.4%
implies that the project road can cater to nearly accommodate 26% more capacity given in IRC :
64.

4.5.1.3 Directional Distribution

Like hourly variations, directional distribution of traffic will be useful in the Capacity and LOS
analysis, and in planning various facilities, like, number of toll lanes at the toll plaza, rest area,
etc. The directional distribution in each of the TVC location is presented at Table 4.10 below:

Table 4.10: Directional Distribution


Directional Distributions
Location
Aurangabad-Yedshi Yedshi-Aurangabad
Km 105+000 52% 48%
Km 146+000 51% 49%
Km 166+400 51% 49%
Km 188+000 51% 49%
Km 215+000 50% 50%
Km 234+000 49% 51%
Km 277+000 51% 49%

A relatively flat peak with PHF in the range 6.0 to 7.1 and a directional distribution of 51:49
means that the Project Road can cater to much higher traffic volume than the capacity specified
in IRC: 64 1991.

It is observed over 99% of the traffic flow on the project corridor comprises of motorized
traffic. The composition of traffic in PCUs and vehicles is presented in Figures 4.26 to 4.32
The share of the Non Motorized Traffic (NMT) is insignificant.
FINAL DETAILED PROJECT REPORT

Two wheelers and three wheelers composition in the total vehicles is significant ranging from
22%(Km 234, Wadi Godri) to 42% (Km 166+600, Pali). However, they do not contribute to
the revenue as they are non tollable traffic.
The tollable vehicles share is over 56% in all the seven locations. The tollable vehicles are
highest in terms of vehicles at 75% at Wadigodri (Km 234). The tollable vehicles share is
lowest again in terms of vehicles at 56% at Pali (Km 166+400)
When the tollable vehicles share is compared in terms of PCUs they vary in a narrow band
ranging from 81% - 91%. The main reason for the same is the composition of commercial
vehicles.
When the comparison is made in terms of number of vehicles, the passenger vehicles
composition is highest at Adul (Km 166+400) at 45% and lowest at Chausala (Km 146) at
31%. The variation is mainly due to the number of two wheelers at these locations.
When comparison is made in terms of PCUs the commercial vehicles are more than 55% in all
the seven sections.

4.5.1.5 Annual Average Daily Traffic (AADT)

The traffic plying on any road generally varies over different periods of year depending on the
cycle of different socio-economic activities in the regions through which it passes. Therefore, in
order to have more realistic picture of the traffic on the project road, it is required to assess
seasonal variation in traffic to estimate Annual Average Daily Traffic (AADT). Therefore, the ADT
observed during the survey duration is multiplied by a Seasonal Correction Factor (SCF) to derive
AADT. The seasonal correction factor is generally derived from secondary data sources such as
past month-wise traffic data on the project road, monthly toll revenues from existing tolled
highways in the immediate influence area, sales of fuel at different filling stations along the
project highway, arrival of vehicles at establishments like APMC, Truck Terminals, etc.

In the absence of any other data, either of the project road or in the near vicinity, only the
monthly Figures of fuel sales collected from one petrol bunk on the project road are considered in
the estimation of seasonal variation and seasonal correction factors.

Seasonal Variation

For the present study, firstly the petrol (MS) and diesel (HSD) sale Figures have been used from
petrol bunks along the corridor. The petrol and diesel fuel sale data for the past few years have
been collected and analysed for estimation of SCF. As the traffic surveys were conducted in the
months of April, and May, a SCF for the average for the months of April and May is considered.
The fuel sales Figures at the filling stations along the corridor are presented in Volume-I,
Annexure 4.4. The summary of the analysis in terms of monthly Seasonal Correction Factors
used is presented at Table 4.11 and Figure 4.33.

As given in the above table the traffic speeds are high with delays at Chausala, Beed town,
Georai town and Shahgad towns. Since it crosses number of settlements, the side friction is
considerable.

4.5.5 Truck Focal Point Survey

Truck focal point survey is done at two locations Km 136+400 and at Km 160+400 as per the
details given at Table 4.6. The purpose of the survey is to know the requirement of truck
parking spaces along the project corridor. It is observed that trucks are parked at these two
locations hence these locations are identified for the survey.

Modewise vehicle, registration number of the vehicle, and occupancy of the parking space, origin,
destination and trip frequency data is captured during this survey. The data is captured for every
half an hour interval.

Based on the above information the parking accumulation of the commercial vehicles (LCV, 2 Axle
& 3 Axle trucks & MAVs) is derived and presented below at Figure 4.35 & Figure 4.36

4.5.6 Travel Pattern

As described earlier comprehensive Origin-Destination surveys were conducted for 1 day for 24
hours at each of the 4 locations. The O-D surveys on the project road were carried out based on
the Road Side Interview (RSI) method as described in IRC:102-1988.

In order to understand and use the travel pattern data collected during the O-D survey, a
scientifically derived zoning system is prepared. The Project Influence Area is broadly divided into
Immediate Influence Area (IIA) and Broad Influence Area (BIA) as detailed below:

Immediate Influence Area (IIA) This region contributes to most of the trips observed
on the project road, and primarily includes the towns, cities and districts around and near the
Project Road.
Broad Infuence Area (BIA) This region contributes trips, but to a lesser degree when
compared to the IIA.
While defining zone boundaries, the following were considered:

Important towns and industrial centers along the project road and competing roads in the
region.
Administrative boundaries of district and state boundaries.
Configuration of the project roads in the regional road network with respect to other National
Highways.

A comprehensive 61 zone system was adopted for the study to understand the travel pattern of
the traffic using the project road/corridor. As indicated in earlier section the entire length of the
project road/corridor passes through Maharashtra state only. In Maharashtra it passes through
four districts viz., Osmanabad, Beed, Jalna and Aurangabad. These districts are thus delineated in
to a small number of traffic zones to provide an insight into the travel pattern in these districts. In
order to determine the influence area of the project road and to estimate the likely traffic to the
accuracy possible, the area outside these districts which have a bearing on the traffic plying on
the corridor is divided into a number of zones. Delhi is identified as an independent zone. The
important cities/towns along the corridor and across the corridor providing good connectivity are
also delineated as separate zones. The list of the traffic zones delineated for the study is
presented in Table 4.23.

Building Materials, Food grains, and fruits & Vegetables are the major commodities carried by the
commercial vehicles.

The analysis of the O-D matrices indicates that over 90% of the motorized passenger traffic (all
the four OD locations) is from Maharashtra state only. Since location Km 146+000 & Km 166+000
are closer to the state of Andhra Pradesh the influence of Andhra Pradesh state is there though
marginally. After this location the influence of Maharashtra state is more than 96%. Hence, for
passenger vehicles Maharashtra can be considered as the Project Influence Area.

The analysis of the O-D matrices indicates about 50% of the commercial traffic is from
Maharashtra state and the balance is evenly spread among Karnataka & Goa, Andhra Pradesh,

4.5.7 Willingness To Pay Survey

NHAI has adopted the concept of development of the projects on BOT (Toll) basis. The user pays
for the development of the project criteria has been adopted in various projects and is received
well all over the country. The result is well developed highways. The toll rates are also
established on per Km basis which is applicable to all the projects. Detailed guidelines are given
to revise the toll rates.

For the present project the Consultants have carried out the Willingness To Pay survey at
different locations as indicated in the survey schedule. The results are analyzed and found that
about 86% of the users are willing to pay for the cost of project development. This also indicates
the necessity of the widening the project corridor immediately.

4.5.8 Axle Load Survey

Axle load surveys have been conducted on the project corridor at all proposed toll plaza locations
to estimate the overloading and the VDF at the toll plaza locations. Axle load survey has been
conducted for one day at four locations. Please refer the traffic survey schedule for details. The
axle load data have been collected mainly for trucks (both empty and loaded). However, a few

numbers of buses had also been weighed to get an idea of their loading behavior. Special care
had been taken to avoid any variation in the wheel loads due to camber. The procedure adopted
using the weigh pad was as follows:

A suitable safe site was selected for the diversion of vehicles to avoid traffic congestion and
utilization of the equipment.
The weigh pads were placed on firm ground adjacent to the Carriageway, at a spacing to
match with the wheel paths of trucks and buses. Each pad is provided with ramps to facilitate
vehicle movement onto the pad.
The driver of the vehicle was directed to position the front wheel(s) on the centre of the
pad(s). After waiting for 30 seconds to stabilize the reading, axle load was noted from the
inbuilt display unit.
Similarly, the rear axle was also positioned and reading noted.
Sum of the front and rear axle loads gives the Gross Vehicle Weight (GVW)

Enumerators were enlisted to direct the traffic and to ensure random sampling. The enumerators
recorded the type of the vehicles, number of axles, and commodity carried. Maximum gross
vehicle weight has been considered as per the MoRSTH specification.

Vehicle damage factor has been calculated based on the axle load survey results for each
category of vehicles at all the proposed toll plaza locations and presented in the Table 4.34 &
Table 4.35.

4.6.3 New Developments in the Vicinity

a. DELHI MUMBAI INDUSTRIAL CORRIDOR

The Delhi Mumbai Industrial Corridor Project is a State-sponsored Industrial Development


Project of the Government of India. It is an ambitious project aimed at developing an Industrial
Zone spanning across six states in India. The project will see major expansion of Infrastructure
and Industry including industrial clusters and rail, road, port, air connectivity in the states
along the route of the Corridor. The corridor will span a length of 1483 km.

The ambitious project will be funded through private-public partnership and foreign investment.
Japan will be a major investor for this project. Both India and Japan signed an agreement to set
up a project development fund. The initial size of the Fund will be Rs 1,000 Crore (about $212
milion). Both the Japanese and Indian governments contribute equally.

Rehabilitation and Upgradation of Aurangabad to Yedshi Section of
NH-211 under NHDP Phase IV A&B in the State of Maharashtra

The corridor would include six mega Investment Regions (SIR) of 200 square kilometers each and
will run through six states Delhi, Western Uttar Pradesh, Southern Haryana, Eastern Rajasthan,
Eastern Gujarat, Western Maharashtra.

Conceived as a Global Manufacturing and Trading Hub, the project is expected to double
employment potential, triple industrial output and quadruple exports from the region in 5 years.
The total employment to be generated from the project is 3 million, bulk of which will be in the
manufacturing/processing sectors.

It will include a 4000 MW Power Plant, three sea Ports and six Airports in addition to connectivity
with the existing ports. The industrial corridor project will be implemented by the Delhi Mumbai
Industrial Corridor Development Corporation (DMICDC), an autonomous body comprising of
Government and Private Sector.

It will be implemented through special purpose vehicles [SPVs]. The project is expected to deliver
a 2-3-4-5 benefit, to double employment (2), triple industrial output (3) and quadruple exports
(4) from the region in five years (5). It will built along a dedicated rail freight corridor, and once
commissioned, will reduce the Delhi-Mumbai transit time from 60 hours to 36 hours.

The Government of Maharashtra has constituted a high-power committee to develop four


integrated industrial mega towns in Dhule, Nashik, Aurangabad and Dighi in a time-bound
manner.

The state government has decided to set up an exhibition and convention centre at Shendra,
Aurangabad; the Nashik-Igatpuri-Sinnar investment region; and a multi-model logistic hub at
Karla. It also has plans to develop the Dighi port.

is the planning authority for the


corridor. It will take care of land acquisition and coordinate the development. It is exploring
possibilities of promoting manufacturing industries, such as automobiles, white goods, hardware,
iron and steel. With adequate connectivity and infrastructure available along the corridor,
transportation of raw and finished goods will become easier.

Consultancy for preparation of Development Plan for Igatpuri-Nashik-Sinnar Investment Region


and Dighi Port Industrial Area in Maharashtra awarded to Consultants in January 2010. Area
delineation, market analysis and infrastructure gap assessment reports submitted by the
consultants are being reviewed by the DMICDC and state government.

The Project is proposed to be developed in two phases. Phase I of the project is planned to be
completed by 2013. Phase II is planned to be completed by 2018. 6 Investment Regions and 6
Industrial Areas (listed below) are proposed to be developed in Phase I of the project.

4.7 FUTURE GROWTH OF THE PIA ECONOMY

The past growths of the PIA economy, proposed developments in the region are critically
analyzed and projected in to the future. The projected growths of the PIA economy are presented
in Table 4.44.

The realistic growth rates of the PIA economy are assessed based on the previous growths and
the potential of the area. The details are provided below:

The Delhi-Mumbai Industrial Corridor (DMIC) is proposed to be developed in the vicinity of the
project corridor. The details of the Development of the Industrial Regions and the Industrial Areas
in the phase I and phase II are provided in the previous section. Due to these huge
developments, the economy of the area will get galvanised which will reflect in the growth rates
of the economy. In view of the above an additional growth of 1% is considered in the PIA
economy. Since the project DMIC is expected to be implemented from 2015, the impact is
considered for the period afterwards. The considered growth rates of the economy are provided
below in Table 4.45:

4.8 TRAFFIC GROWTH RATES

4.8.1 Elasticity Analysis

Elasticity Analysis is generally done to establish the relationship between the growths in the
economy to the growths of the vehicle registration data. This is used to establish the growth rates
of the corridor.

The other method of fixing the growth rates is the historical mode wise data on the project
corridor. If reliable data is available this gives good insights. Unfortunately the historical data is
collected by different survey agencies and generally not reliable. In view of the above the
elasticity analysis is employed for this present study.

Elasticity analysis is used in the report. Vehicle registration data is regressed with the economic
parameters to establish the relationship. The results of the elasticity Analysis is presented at
Table 4.46 below:

The results of elasticity analysis are closely observed for their logic, R 2 values and t-stat values
and finalized.

4.8.2 Traffic Growth Rates

Traffic growth rates needed to assess the likely future traffic levels on the project road are a
product of the economic growth rate and the elasticity of the traffic demand vis-à-vis economic
growth. This can be expressed by the following equation.

Tg = e x Eg .1

Where Tg = Traffic Growth Rate


e = Elasticity of Traffic Demand
Eg = Economic Growth Rate

Based on the mode-wise elasticity values, and estimated future growth rates of the PIA economy,
the mode-wise growth rates are finalized.

The traffic growth rates are considered for three scenarios Optimistic, Realistic and Pessimistic
primarily based on the growth of the PIA economy. The growth rates of the economy for these
three scenarios are presented in Table 4.47.

4.9 TRAFFIC FORECAST

Traffic on different section (HS-1 to HS-7, Table 4.1) of the project corridor is forecast 30 years
into the future based on the growth rates estimated for the project.

The traffic on the highway is generally estimated in three categories Generated Traffic, Induced
Traffic and Diverted Traffic.

Generated Traffic

The proposed new developments in the vicinity of the project highway will generate additional
traffic. The Delhi Mumbai Industrial Corridor project is being developed by GOI. The development
regions and areas in different phases are being contemplated in Maharashtra state also, the
details of which are given above. Since these developments have wide spinoffs in the economy an
additional 1% growth in the economy due to the above is considered. Further to the above four
Special Economic Zones are being developed in Maharashtra state in proximity to the project
corridor. The impacts of these SEZs are being considered in different phases and impact of the
same is estimated based on the trip rates (ITE).

Induced Traffic

Development of the project highway from 2 lane facility to a 4 lane facility (partially) will induce
more traffic on to the highway. It is normal based on past experience to consider a 2% of
induced traffic on such facilities. Accordingly 2% induced traffic is considered on the present
project highway.

Diverted Traffic

a. Presently the truck traffic is not using the project corridor due to the presence of Ghat section
near Chalisgaon. The truck traffic is using the Jalgaon route and bypasses the ghat section
and ultimately uses the Yedshi-Sholapur section since it is the only route to go further down
south. Once the project corridor is developed improving/ bypassing the ghat section this truck
traffic will get diverted to the project corridor. Hence the OD matrix of Yedshi-Sholapur
section is used and compared with the Aurangabad-Yedshi section and the difference is

added to get the diverted traffic. This additional traffic gets added to the Aurangabad-Wadi
Godri sections. The details are given below:

MAV 90

b. The impact of the NH-222 is studied. The OD data at different locations is studied and found
that traffic is already using the NH-222 and there will not be any further increase in the traffic
in future.

Traffic forecast for the most likely (Realistic) growth scenario is presented in Table 4.51 to
Table 5.57. It is observed that the traffic (vehicles) on the project corridor in the horizon year
would be over five times to the base year value.

IRC-64:1990 specifies a design service volume of 15,000 PCUs/day for two lane roads (plain
terrain, low curvature) which can be increased by 15% with the provision of paved shoulders i.e.
17,250 PCUs /day. This refers to a Level Of Service (LOS) of B i.e. 0.5 times the Capacity. It was
also recommended to design the highway for the LOS B only. The above table shows when (the
year) this threshold value is crossed and when we should go for the 4 lanes and it is summarized
in the Table 4.59.

All the sections except section 2 are required to be four laned by 2015 i.e. during the construction
period itself (considering 3 years construction period). Hence it is recommended that the section
needs to be four laned right away based on the financial viability.

4.10.2 Grade Separated Intersections

Grade separation facilities need to be provided at various intersections, along the project corridor.
The guideline given by IRC and Four-laning manual are:

The Manual for Four-laning of Highways, IRC:SP-84-


under/overpass structures shall be provided at the intersection of the Project highway with
National Highways and State Highways. Such under/over passes shall also be provided across
the other categories of roads carrying an average daily traffic of more than 5000 PCUs on the
.
IRC-
intersections of divided rural highways if the ADT (fast vehicles only) on the cross road within
the next 5 years exceeds 5000. Where this traffic Figure will be reached within the next 20
years, the need for such facilities should be kept in view for future construction.
Total 9 intersections traffic volumes are studied. Table 4.60 presents the intersection wise data
of the projected cross road traffic in the next 5 years.
Table 4.60: Projected traffic at Intersections
S. No. Chainage Location 5 Years Fast vehicles only
1 Km 114+400 Pardiphata Junction (SH-142) 572
2 Km 123+000 Kunthalgiri Junction (SH-142) 616
3 Km 158+000 Manjarsumba Junction (SH-156) 2,339
4 Km 195+700 Padalsingi Junction (NH-222) 1,331
5 Km 201+000 Gadhi Junction (NH-222) 1,793
6 Km 231+600 Wadigodri Junction (SH-176) 1,074
7 Km 250+500 SH-148 Junction 1,614
8 Km 292+000 Aurangabad Junction 1,423

Based on the traffic forecast at the intersections, no intersection gets qualified for up gradation to
grade separated facility as per IRC-62:1976. But as per the Manual for Four-laning of Highways
(IRC:SP-84-2009), considering the traffic volumes and safety aspects it is recommended to
provide flyovers at the following junctions:

Km 158+000, Manjarsumba Junction (SH-156)

Km 195+700, Padalsingi Junction (NH-222)

Km 201+100, Gadhi Junction (NH-222)

Km 231+510, Wadigodri Junction (SH-176)

It is also recommended to provide VUP at Km 114+400 Pardiphata Junction, as SH-142 leads to


the town Bhoom and also to religious place Shirdi. At Km 123+000, Kunthalgiri Junction is
proposed for upgradation to major junctions design. SH-148 junction at Km 250+500 is within the
Pachod bypass extent and VUP is recommended.

In addition to the above survey locations, VUPs and flyovers are also proposed at following
locations excluding bypass location:

At Km 104+000, VUP is proposed to provide access to Terkhed Village where many small
fire crackers industries are located.
At Km 184+780, VUP is proposed to Namalgaon road
At Km 202+500, VUP is proposed to provide access to sugar industry near Gadhi as
number of bullock carts, tractor trolleys, and trucks carrying sugar cane crosses at this
junction during Oct to March.
At Km 222+350, flyover is proposed at Shagad Bus Stand
At Km 226+600, VUP is proposed to provide access to sugar industry at Ankushnagar as
number of bullock carts, tractor trolleys, and trucks carrying sugar cane crosses at this
junction during Oct to March.
At Km 233+250, Km 280+450 and Km 282+650 VUPs are proposed to provide safe
crossing and access to village roads at the respective locations.

4.10.3 Pedestrian / Cattle Underpasses

Pedestrian cum cattle crossing volumes are studied at 7 locations. Daily and peak hour volumes
are summarized in Table 4.61 & Table 4.62.

Considering the pedestrian volumes at Km 213+800 at Jaikwadicamp, it is proposed to provide a


PUP at Km 213+800. The locations Km 143+000, Km 209+200, Km 207+400 and Km250+000
are within the bypass extents. At Km 198+000 the pedestrian volumes are low and hence no PUP
is proposed at this location. In addition to survey locations PUP/CUP are provided at the
following locations excluding bypass location:

At Km 168+550, PUP is proposed considering an existing school in Pali village.

At Km 191+400, CUP is proposed at Hirapur village road.
