The present traffic behaviors around the project area were
analyzed and variation with the land use changes and the impact was evaluated.
The traffic demand analysis was conducted for the proposed Patimban Port Access
Toll Road considering different types of possible traffic diversions such as
diversion of traffic from existing road network, Diversion of traffic generated
by Patimban Port, Diversion of traffic generated from proposed Industrial
areas. In order to fulfill the above analysis sub-components such as organizing
and planning data collection field work, data analysis, Traffic demand forecast
analysis for the proposed toll road with the expansion of the port facilities,
modeling the toll station traffic volumes, toll sensitivity analysis and
capacity analysis was carried out. The consultants assisted the team with
traffic problems which occur during the engineering design process such as
capacity for the construction vehicles during the constructions and provided
traffic mitigation measures along the project corridor.
