Rapid urbanization and industrialization have caused an unprecedented growth of vehicles in the world.
The urban traffic congestion has a global phenomenon. Environmental pollution problems are also faced by
humanity on these days. Due to fast growing vehicular traffic, old planned cities become congested road links,
intersection become saturated, busy and supply service is above its capacity. Therefore, it requires effective controls to
regulate the traffic and optimize delay and congestion of the traffic at the intersection. This problem can be eliminated
by providing Flyover Bridge at intersection.
This research is mainly focused on feasibility of Flyover Bridge at highly congested intersection. This research is
consider the traffic survey like classified volume count survey, speed and delay survey and also collect the data like
accident data, population and vehicle growth data of study area. Economic evaluation will be carried out for the
Vrundavan intersection. From this research it revealed that for better & efficient transportation infrastructure in
urban area at highly congested intersection should gave the facilities if Flyover Bridge may be satisfy the needs.
