M.E. Project Work- "A Comparative Traffic Parameters Study of ‘With Car' and ‘Without Car' scenario in Indore BRT Corridor", under the Supervision of Prof. S M Narulkar, Prof and Dean, S.G.S.I.T.S. Indore MP.

Project Details: In the present situation, transportation planning in urban areas has become a key issue. The transportation problems generate traffic problems. In modern day living many good alternatives of transportation have been proposed of which Metro Rail System, Mono rail system, Light- Rail transport System etc. These are all costly from the view point of initial investment as well as the operating costs. However, Bus Rapid Transit System (BRTS) has been a better option but at the same time BRT creates a problem for the vehicular traffic in the MV lane because BRT usually shares the right of the way and the bus lanes are laid by deducting the space from the usual traffic lanes. The main objective of the project study was to investigate the impact of traffic conditions in the BRT corridor of the city of Indore under two main scenarios, viz. the ‘Cars in the BRT Lane ‘ and ‘Only BRT Buses in BRT Lane'. The cars were allowed in BRT lane for a shorter period after a PIL filed in the Indore Bench of the Honorable High Court of the State of Madhya Pradesh. The condition arose had merit and demerits both.
