CONCLUSION
3. INTRODUCTION OF TRAFFIC
MANAGEMENT
• Transport means movement of people and goods from one place to another
place. Transportation means the entire activity involving traffic and transport.
• The traffic management is a science by itself and it includes the study of
regulations for traffic, controlling and guiding measures for traffic, flow of
traffic at junctions, parking areas, traffic survey, engineering elements of road
system affecting traffic operation, improvement of traffic facilities in existing
towns, etc.
4. TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT AS PART OF
ROAD MANAGEMENT
• Traffic management measures are aimed at improving the safety and flow of
traffic, reducing traffic emissions and utilizing traffic artery capacity more
effectively.
• Traffic is controlled per intersection, road section or the entire road network.
Traffic control is divided into fixed and variable traffic control.
• Monitoring systems include automatic speed and intersection control,
monitoring transports of hazardous materials and automatic lane-use
monitoring.
5. PURPOSE OF TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT
• Traffic management plans are used to manage the safety of the public and workers on site.
• All Traffic management plans must be prepared by a qualified person and must include following details:
The start date and end date of works
The extent of the proposed work area
Any TCDs, including temporary devices, that are to be installed, removed or altered
The license number of the person who prepared the plan.
Work approval – for any occasion when work will occur on public unleased land including the
implementation of measures included within the Traffic management Plan.
Approval to temporarily close a public road or use a closed public road.
6. OBJECTIVES OF TRAFFIC
MANAGEMENT
To achieve smooth and easy flow of the traffic at intersections:
To develop the methods for improvement in general and for solving specific problems in particular,
To have safe, convenient, rapid and economic transport of persons and goods,
To improve the speeds of vehicles;
To increase the traffic carrying capacity of roads;
To make the streets safe for the movements of both, pedestrians and vehicles;
To reduce the delays in road journeys;
To reduce the chances of road accidents to a minimum;
To remove the traffic congestion; etc.
7. PRINCIPLES OF TRAFFIC
MANAGEMENT
• Safety – Traffic Management plans must control the risks, for both workers and the general
public, associated with work on or adjacent to the public road. These plans need to be mindful
that any feature placed within the road environment has the potential to be a hazard for road
users.
• Accessibility – Traffic Management plans should ensure access to the public road and essential
goods and services is maintained for all road users.
• Amenity – Traffic Management plans should minimize delays to traffic (including pedestrians
and cyclists) and, where practical, maintain the most direct and convenient route between
destinations. There is an expectation that traffic lanes, footpaths, cycle paths, cycle lanes and
shared paths should remain open for use.
• Asset – Traffic Management plans should minimize damage and the risk of damage to the road
asset including natural features such as landscaping and trees.
8. INTELLIGENT
TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM
• Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) is the application of computer,
electronics, and communication technologies and management strategies in
an integrated manner to provide traveler information to increase the safety
and efficiency of the road transportation systems.
• Application of advanced sensors, computers, electronics, and
communications technologies and management strategies in an integrated
manner providing travel information to increase the safety, efficiency,
reliability and sustainability of the transportation system.
9. INTELLIGENT TRANSPORTATION
SYSTEM USER SERVICES
• In order to deploy ITS, a framework is developed highlighting various services the ITS can offer to the users.
• The eight groups are described as follows:
1. Travel and traffic management
2. Public transportation operations
3. Electronic payment
4. Commercial vehicle operations
5. Advance vehicle control and safety systems
6. Emergency management
7. Information management
8. Maintenance and construction management
11. NEED OF INTELLIGENT
TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM
• The need of ITS standards can be explained by five aspects:
Product behavior.
Interface.
Performance.
Co-ordination and interaction.
Benefits to vendors, manufacturers and government.
12. ITS APPLICATIONS
• Indian traffic can benefit from several possible ITS applications. One set of applications is for traffic
management.
Incident detection
Vehicle classification
Monitoring
Historical traffic data
Congestion maps and travel time estimates
Public transport information
Accident handling
13. ELEMENTS OF ITS
1. Traffic Management Center (TMC)
2. Advanced Traffic Management System (ATMS)
3. Variable Message Signs (VMS)
4. Traffic Cameras
14. TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT CENTER
(TMC)
Objectives: - To deal with day-to-day operational
management of traffic by monitoring real time
information and intervening where required.
Benefits:-
Efficient and informed decision making
Dissemination of same information to all
stakeholders
Entire traffic operations can be controlled
from single center
15. ADVANCED TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT
SYSTEMS (ATMS)
Objectives: - To reduce collisions
associated with congestion and blocked
lanes.
Benefits:-
Collision management
Emergency response
Emergency management
Congestion
Construction management
16. VARIABLE MESSAGE SIGN (VMS)
Objectives: - To provide travelers with real-time
traffic information updates.
Benefits:-
It disseminates real-time information to travelers
on
traffic congestion
accidents
incidents
roadwork zones
speed limits
17. TRAFFIC CAMERAS
Objectives: -Is to provide safe and secure
transport system.
Benefits:-
Improves the entire transport network by
• improving safety of travelers
• Improving security of the system
Is the most reliable source of
information
18. CHALLENGES FACED TOWARDS
IMPLEMENTING ITS IN INDIA
The foremost challenges/solutions are:
Awareness is needed, but understanding is critical
Sound transportation policy framework and institutional base
Setting up comprehensive interoperability standards
Integration is essential
Budgeting and procurement
19. MUMBAI URBAN TRANSPORT PROJECT
(MUTP)
• A multi-modal project taken up by Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority
(MMRDA) aims to bring about improvement in current traffic and transportation situation
in the MMR (Mumbai Metropolitan Region).
• Innovations introduced in the systems include:
Signal controllers
Night time dimming
Overhead video detectors
Single source LED Aspects
Signal poles
20. CONCLUSION
• Traffic congestion is an important problem in Indian cities. The
characteristics of Indian roads and traffic make the problem interesting to
solve.
• There is scope for evaluating existing ideas in different and challenging traffic
scenarios, innovate new solutions and empirically evaluate ideas in
collaboration with public and private sectors.
• ITS techniques have to undergo adaptation and innovation to suit the
contrasting traffic characteristics of Indian roads.
