ABSTRACT

The overall objective of this study is to assess the implementability of Municipal Transport Master Plan with the assessment of Bandipur Inner Ring Road. Various literatures were reviewed to assess the planning, adopted approaches and implementability related with the transportation master plan. Data were collected through Questionnaire survey, Interviews and Focus Group Discussions. Technical Survey was also conducted for assessing compliance level of technical parameters of ring road. Traffic Count Survey and Household Survey were carried out to analyze the traffic situation of ring road. Possible budget allocation and possible budget requirement for ring road were calculated for five years (FY 2016/17 to FY 2020/21) and determined the possible financial gap. Results were assessed with the indicators of implementability (rational, legitimate, feasible, politically viable and socially acceptable). The result showed that still 2.64km section of ring road is earthen where total length of road is 3.9km. Just 500m lined and 460m dry side drain is constructed throughout the ring road. It complies 70.59% technical parameters of Village Road Standards and only 6.25% of Urban Road Standards but 510 vehicles including motorcycle (567 PCU) run on this road per day from two sides. The road is found overloaded. MTMP report has just prepared in municipality and 93% of total respondents has accepted that MTMP is prepared adopting Participatory and Bottom Up planning Approach. MTMP is implementable by generating internal revenue.
