are conducted at 18 points which include the entry/exit points
along with merging and diverging arms throughout the 22 km
length of service road. 10 mid-blocks are observed based on
the traffic movement and detailed reconnaissance of the study
area. As per the result of the weekday traffic volume count
survey Morning and Evening peak hours are identified for
each midblock and design service volume is assessed with the
proposed IRC codes.
