RE: SLC-S33/W6 | Our Surroundings: Let´s Talk About The News - How has traffic been in your region
Your observation on the traffic situation on the Modipuram flyover and NH-58 corridor was an opportunity to understand in depth. After reading the post, I came to know that the detailed description of the pressure created on the Modipuram station, toll plaza, and service roads on the first working day after the highway was closed for two consecutive weeks due to a major religious event brings out the real picture. In my opinion, the direct manual management of the traffic police is much more effective than regular signals at the junction of Roorkee Road, the CNG pump, and the service road under the Modipuram flyover. Especially during the school peak hours, those intersections become the most vulnerable due to the pressure of parents and long-distance vehicles. Moreover, the data of more than 60 thousand vehicles passing through the toll plaza in a few days proves that the main pressure is created due to inter-city passengers on weekends. Although there are temporary barricades and signposts on the highway, the irregular condition of the service roads and reckless overtaking are challenging for long-distance drivers. It is important to quickly repair the damage and potholes that occur on the road, especially after long religious gatherings. Your ability to observe traffic clearly shows that you are able to capture such a beautiful and accurate picture of the field within a short distance, riding your own scooter. Best wishes to you in this contest. 😊
