Abstract

The research examines pedestrian movement around National Highway 10 crossings (NH-10). These crossroads, which are vital to urban traffic, provide safety and efficiency. This study examines pedestrian flow characteristics to identify patterns, behaviours, and issues in pedestrian-vehicular traffic interactions. NH-10's numerous locations provide a full pedestrian flow study. The research uses field observations, pedestrian counts, and geographical analysis. These methods help examine pedestrian volumes, movement patterns, crossing habits, and safety problems. The research also identifies peak hours, bottlenecks, and possible conflict regions to better understand pedestrian experiences near crossings. This study should help urban planners, transportation engineers, and policymakers. By understanding pedestrian flow patterns, these crossings may be improved for safety, accessibility, and efficiency. Infrastructure improvements, signal phasing changes, and pedestrian-oriented design may be included. This research unravels NH-10 junction pedestrian-vehicle interactions. It uses empirical data and theoretical research to support decision-making that enhances pedestrian and vehicular traffic harmony and smooth mobility at these crucial urban hubs.
