Analysis of traffic capacity and design for the reconstruction of a large roundabout in the city of Zagreb

Vilnius, the capital and the largest city of Lithuania, is faced with serious traffic problems. The main streets of the city are overcrowded with traffic. Therefore, the effective ways to ease the congestion should be sought. The paper considers the problem of high traffic intensity and congestion at the intersection of two busy Vilnius streets. Research is based on the analysis of the data stored at the Vilnius Traffic Management Centre and the information obtained in the experimental investigation of traffic flows. All the collected data have been used in the traffic simulation program, to make some effective measures helping to increase traffic capacity of the considered intersection.

The City

One of the most challenging problems in city management in a developing city like Vijayawada is Traffic Congestion. Being a part of the proposed capital city of Andhra Pradesh Amaravati, the vehicular population in Vijayawada as recorded the tremendous growth. With increase of Vehicular population (2015) as 3.32% of Transport vehicles and 7.97% of Non-Transport vehicles (as of data.gov.in) it has now became an alarming issue to develop the demand based transportation infrastructure. The traffic congestion not only disrupts the business activities but also reduces productivity level of the city. The traffic congestion, effect the increase in possibility of accidents because of weak traffic management in the city. So it is now very essential to give the solution to ill effects of traffic congestion in Vijayawada. This paper describes the traffic congestion problem for the busiest roads of the Vijayawada city i.e.., Eluru and Bandar road. The traffic congestion of these roads is determined by the level of service of the arterial roads (LOS) through Average speed, Traffic volume and Traffic Capacity. Also the topological features of the city and solution to the problems triggering traffic congestion are suggested

The Ideal

The development of roads in the City of Jepara continues to increase and the width of the road is insufficient to accommodate the traffic capacity causing flow obstruction and the road has an existing structural decline, causing the sections to be bumpy and potholes. It is necessary to do an analysis study on the improvement of the Mantingan-Ngabul road / Sultan Hadlirin road, Jepara Regency in order to solve this problem. From the analysis results obtained as follows: The ideal road widening for this road is at least 6 m. The analysis for calculating the pavement thickness index (ITP) for a 20 year plan age is Laston MS 744 with a thickness of 10 cm, Broken Stone Class A (CBR100%) with a thickness of 20 cm, and Sirtu Class A (CBR70%) with a thickness of 25.4 cm. The results of the geometric analysis of the highway where 5 S-S bends are obtained, with details of bend 1 requiring side freedom of 2.75 m, bend 2 of 3.17 m, bend 4 of 2.80 m, bend 5 of 3.11 m and bend widening is not required. For bend 3 requires side freedom of 13,725 m and a bend widening of 1 m is required from the original width of 7 m. According to the analysis, the road capacity of the Mantingan - Ngabul / Sultan Hadlirin road, Jepara Regency, obtained an average traffic growth rate of 2.6% and the number of LHR per year as follows: In 2020 4440 the number of vehicles / day. In 2025, there are 5048 vehicles / day. In 2030, there are 5739 the number of vehicles / day. In 2035, it is 6525 the number of vehicles / day. In 2040, 7419 the number of vehicles / day.

The Court of Appeals of New York held, in Council of the City of New York u. Giuliani, slip op. 02634, 1999 WL 179257 (N.Y. Mar. 30, 1999), that New York City may not privatize a public city hospital without state statutory authorization. The court found invalid a sublease of a municipal hospital operated by a public benefit corporation to a private, for-profit entity. The court reasoned that the controlling statute prescribed the operation of a municipal hospital as a government function that must be fulfilled by the public benefit corporation as long as it exists, and nothing short of legislative action could put an end to the corporation's existence.In 1969, the New York State legislature enacted the Health and Hospitals Corporation Act (HHCA), establishing the New York City Health and Hospitals Corporation (HHC) as an attempt to improve the New York City public health system. Thirty years later, on a renewed perception that the public health system was once again lacking, the city administration approved a sublease of Coney Island Hospital from HHC to PHS New York, Inc. (PHS), a private, for-profit entity.
