PASSENGERS REQUEST AT RELOCATED AT A DISTANCE
THE JUNCTION OF 250M FROM THE “Y” JN.
INSTALL A SPEED HUMP JUST
BEFORE THE INTERSECTION
SO AS TO REDUCE THE SPEED

CONCLUSIONS
¾ PEAK HOUR VOLUME IS HIGH AT SR NAGAR Jn & SR

NAGAR – ESI MID BLOCK
¾ DELAY AT SR NAGAR IS HIGH & LESS AT SRINAGAR
¾ SR NAGAR – ESI HAVE HIGHEST CAPACITY
¾ AMEERPET – MYTHRIVANAM HAVE LESS CAPACITY
¾ KUKATPALLY – ERRAGADDA HAVE MORE DELAY
¾ ESI – SR NAGAR HAVE LESS DELAY
¾ 4 BOTTLENECKS IDENTIFIED WITH 2 ON EITHER
SIDE
Page 45
• OVERALL CORRIDOR PERFORMANCE CAN BE
IMPROVED WHEN,
PEDESTRAIN CROSSINGS
IMPROVED
ENCROACHMENTS CLEARED
