The record
Written from the 1 report below. Nothing here is unsourced.
- The Bengaluru East City Corporation has piloted a traffic management model called the Enforced Easy Flow Corridor (EEFC) at the Kaggadasapura Railway Crossing and Main Road, which reduced congestion without major road construction.
- Officials say queue clearance after the railway gate opens has improved by 60% to 75%, travel time through the junction fell by 50% to 60%, and vehicles passing every 15 minutes rose from 300-400 to more than 700.
- The model uses measures such as interconnected barricades, lane dividers and signage to optimise existing road space instead of widening roads.
- The corporation has now identified five major congestion points for the model's first phase of implementation.
What to watch next
- Which five congestion points are selected for the first phase of EEFC rollout
- Whether the Kaggadasapura results hold up over a longer period and during peak traffic
- How the model performs during emergencies, given the removable barricade design for ambulances and fire vehicles
