摘要: |
With rapid economic development and urbanisation there has been a higher rate of increase in private vehicle ownership than road supply. This has led to an increase in traffic and parking demand. There is an uneven distribution of private vehicles in India. India's major metropolitan cities like Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata and Bengaluru have 5% of India's population but 14% of its registered vehicles (Forbes, 2006). The National Urban Transport Policy, 2006 mentions park-and-ride activity as a parking management initiative to be adopted to reduce traffic congestion on urban roads. Kolkata is known for its well-knit public transport system, however, there has been an increase in the private vehicle usage for work trips in the city. The study aimed to plan for park-and-ride facility as a part of travel demand management along public transport corridors in the city. The first part of the study analysed the public transport accessibility of the city and identified peripheral locations with demand for park-and-ride facility. Out of the corridors identified for having a demand for park-and-ride, one of the corridors was selected for further planning and implementation of the facility. Questionnaire surveys, stated preference method and the concept of generalised cost were used for the study. |
