Utility-Based Road Space Distribution Model for Vehicles, Pedestrian, Parking and Hawkers
The vibrant and multifunctional nature of the Indian roads makes it unique and challenging for effective traffic management. But, in today’s urban planning models, road space allocation is done based on automobile requirements. Hence, there is a need to develop a methodology for optimizing the allocation of competing road space. This study aims at calculating the utility of each competing use at any particular space and place based on the socio-economic and functional fabric of the area. Three road stretches in Kolkata, India, are selected and a primary survey of 300 samples is conducted. Utility maximization theory is applied to maximize the road space utilization. Utility is assigned to every competing uses under the constraints of right of way, level of service requirement and mode demand. The outcome of the proposed methodology is in terms of the percentage of actual demand to be met while allocating road space to different competing use, to maximize the social and economic benefits. This methodology helps achieve optimal allocation of road space for varying kinds of demand that are characteristic of Indian urban streets.
