Abstract :

Intersection Improvement at Sholinganallur in Rajiv Gandhi Road is studied. It is one of the major junctions in CMA which need attention to decongest. It is supported just by roadways. The increase in traffic volume with lack of road geometry results in congestion. Rajiv Gandhi Road has IT companies with lakhs of employees travelling along this road. This intersection has roads along north to south and east to west which connects to the major regions. It struggles with more volume than the capacity which leads delay and queuing of vehicles. This static delay will increase journey time. Traffic system management is suggested by avoiding right turn movements and diverting the vehicles will decrease the volume. As a long ter.0m measure, a grade separator is suggested as per standards along north– south will control the volume and sustain for the coming years.
