Since 1867, we
have been continuously very lucky as
being the ticket holders from the orang-ish central railway junction . Nagpur
station has drawn a line of resistance
for all of us and has been a
strong supporter in the Nagpur’s economic phase. Even ,the
Nagpurian railway e---sssstyle impresses those new “athithis” in our city taking
them back into the old foreign era. But, one problem
that is out
of our confession is the traffic congestion at railway location. Seriously,
this dilemma can be so much so synchronizing that it may destroy
the railway centralization.
Very often, we hear the
term’ traffic congestion’. Talking in the orangish e—ssstyle , the word ‘traffic congestion ‘ is the so called ‘traffic
jam ‘, where vehicles impede
over each other blocking the entire traffic network. Traffic near railway station is like the democratic
process. Every time you think it's going to get moving and take you somewhere,
you hit another jam. Jam pe jam , jam pe jam akhir kab tak, these endless troubles. Generally, this traffic congestion eventuate at any time during day, noon and
night and also when the train s are either scheduled for arrival or departure. The number of hotels , the
road-side restaurants and the chaotic arrangements of the fruit vendors have been consequently creating troubles . The potholes, the
disorganized drainage system ,
the poor urinary habits at the main
entrance, the unsystematic water flow on
the main street , the less expanded roads and the passing of heavy vehicles have also
contributed endlessly in the
prejudicial movements of
traffic congestion. ‘Agglomeration
‘ , meaning the gathering of people and
the mixed parking
strategies of the 2-wheelers and
4-wheelers respectively, have also been
rectified as the major reasons for traffic congestions.
Traffic congestion involves queuing, slower speeds and increased
travel times and also impacts the quality of life, stress, safety as well as
impacts on non-vehicular roadspace users such as the users of sidewalks and road
frontage properties.
It is said that ,”
Nothing is more imminent than the impossible . . . what we must always foresee
is the unforeseen.” So, there are
many possible measures that can be deployed
to eradicate or treat ‘congestion’:-
- · Proper road sanitization strategies.
- · Ensuring that land use planning, and the community objectives it embodies, is coordinated with congestion management policies.
- · Deliver predictable travel times.
- · Effective organization of the road-side restaurants, fruit-vendors and drainage systems.
- · Managing highly trafficked roadways to preserve adequate system performance.
- · Typical measures include planning and coordination of roadworks, speedy response to defective traffic signals and to disruptions caused by accidents and debris.
- · Appropriate parking halls at the right directions.
The question is not how should policies eradicate
congestion but rather, how can authorities best avoid excessive congestion –
for this is really what lies at the heart of congestion management policies .
