27. Children Pedestrians waiting for bus Motor vehicles New Delhi In-appropriate design of road cross sections- designed for nobody.

43.
44. Design Approach The factors taken into consideration for the design of roads -
45. 7M - EXISTING CARRIAGEWAY 3.5M – AVAILABLE CARRIAGEWAY Activity Studies were carried out
86. Start with accurate topo surveys Analyse the landuse All the activities on the street to be studied and quantified Do good traffic counts- always include the pedestrians and NMV’s. Start working on Context sensitive solutions
87. Make the design team multi-disciplinary - involve city engineers, architects and urban designers, traffic experts, urban utility experts and also groups who represent the users such as hawkers, bicycle users.
