8. Problems and Proposal
• Both case study area has change in occupation pattern. More people working in tertiary sector.
• More than 50% mode of transport in both case study area is NMT.
• No preference was given to cyclist or walking person. Infrastructure related to public
transportation is in poor condition in peri-urban areas.
• Because of zonal development plan, focus was given to
peri-urban area too.
• Public transportation has good connectivity for city and
peri-urban area but has problem related to frequency in
some areas.
• Desire pattern of motorized goods vehicle consist 51%
share of External to External (2001 primary survey), need of
outer ring road connecting other peri-urban areas and
avoiding major urban areas like Vijayawada, Guntur in
Region.
• Goods traffic cause delays in peak hours on arterial and
sub arterial roads.
