The document proposes plans to decongest Road No. 56 and improve connectivity to Anand Vihar railway station and terminal in Delhi. It analyzes current traffic patterns and proposes a multi-modal interchange with new entry/exit routes, priority for pedestrians and public transit, and a guided bus corridor. The plan aims to reduce bottlenecks and conflicts through an interconnected street network around the station.

Subject: Road No. 56
• Accessibility of Delhi from Uttar Pradesh – across Road No. 56
• Plan with long term implications to be made, to facilitate commuters between Delhi and Uttar Pradesh
• Current Capacity of Anand Vihar ISBT reduced from 250 to 207 bays; But should be increased to 400+.

10. The solution to the problem lies in The time-tested strategy of providing
Connectivity:
1. Multiple Entry-Exit Routes and a more interconnected
Street Network around the Station Site;
2. Prioritize Accessibility to Pedestrians, Non-motorized
modes and people arriving by Public Transportation.

• No provision for NMT & Pedestrians, Crossing
distance wilsl increase for them by more than
20 times.
• Vikas Marg will be more congested
• Nallah will be covered for making ramps

Multimodal Integration, Walkability & Safety of Public Transport Users
Bus-stops
The present bus-stops as designed are towards the two ends on the ring road.
On site people board buses near the subway cross-overs as this is more
convenient. This creates severe Safety & Usability Challenges.
