Critical decision behind every successful development requires strong basis of reliable data and information to create confidence in decision and production activity. Transportation related development such as road infrastructure, transportation services, freight planning, public mass transportation necessitates high capital investment, therefore, entails deep study to warrants the investment. Traffic survey is foremost step for feasibility study and planning of any development. Traffic survey is an activity to quantify the magnitude of states and parameters of traffic that is travelling through certain road segments.
Islamabad is Federal Capital of Pakistan. It is often termed as Twin Cities along with integration of Rawalpindi, which is adjacent city, separated by I.J.P Road and Islamabad Expressway. As federal capital, it is hub of government and official activities, corporate offices, country and regional headquarters of multinational companies. Due to presence of these high profile landuse, it serves trips with higher socio-economic impacts, therefore, it critically important to design the transportation system to ensure optimal travel experience so as to negate adverse impacts.
Islamabad has seen tremendous transportation related development to serve critically important travel demand in last decade and so under the supervision of Capital Development Authority (CDA). These projects include Public Mass Transportation projects as Rawalpindi-Islamabad Metrobus, and improvements Islamabad Capital Territory Administration (ICTA) Public Transport Routes. Public Mass Transportation services are assisted by major enhancement of road infrastructure which includes Widening & Improvement of Kashmir Highway from Peshawar More to Golra More, Chistiabad Road, Street 69, Sector I-14/4, Islamabad Highway from Karal chowk to G T road, Khayaban-e-Margallah from GT Road to Sector D-12, Addition of 3rd &4th lane Kashmir Highway from Peshawar More to Golra, Development of infrastructure in Sector I-14, I-16, G-13, Dualization of Atta Turk (West) Embassy road from Khayaban-e-Suharwardy to Khayaban-e-Margalla, Garden Avenue, Lathrar Road. Road Widening and rehabilitation are assisted with construction of bridges, underpasses and grade separation facilities in I&T Center G-9/4, 7th Avenue with Khayaban-e-Suharwardy and Kashmir Highway, interchanges at Karal Intersection and at Khanna and Sohan on Islamabad Expressway, Underpasses at 7th and 9th Avenue, Faisal Avenue at G-7/ G-8 and F-7/ F-8, at Shakarparian Intersection and at Shaheed-i-Millat Road, Interchanges at IJP Road, Zero Point, Interchanges at 9th Avenue and Jinnah Avenue, Karal Chowk on Islamabad Express way, Peshawar more on Kashmir Highway, Kashmir highway/7th Avenue link, Over passes on Nazim-ud-Din Road and Fazal-ul-Haq Road over Faisal Avenue. Beside major overhaul to road infrastructures, traffic engineering and management solutions are applied in development of signal free & controlled access corridor of Islamabad Highway from zero point to Faizabad interchange, Improvement/up-gradation of signalize intersection on Murree Road with Kashmir Highway, Pedestrian Bridges at various location on Avenues. All these projects are serving major localities of F-6, F-7, F-8, F-9, F-10, F-11, G-6, G-7, G-8, G-9, G-10, G-11, I-8, I-9, I-10 along with aim to serve key future development of Bahria Town Islamabad, DHA Islamabad.
Despite development of high-profile transportation projects, Road Infrastructure is still operating in distress and pressure. There could be many reasons for this including increase in vehicle ownership, less reliable public transportation, increase dependency on motorbikes, inefficient traffic management and enforcement etc. One of foremost reason for inefficiency of these projects is unreliable data collection during feasibility and planning of project. Efficient planning and design of road construction, renovation and maintenance works require accurate overview of existing transportation situation for assessment of economic feasibility and to quantify consequences of planned measure. Optimized decisions and plans highly depends on accuracy and quality of relevant data and its source. Traffic Surveys aim to capture precisely to reflect the real-world condition.
