Abstract: Kerala is well renowned for being one among the perfect tourist locationsin India. Eventhough many of the locations in Kerala have high tourism potential, they are not projected out in to the sight of people as what it demands and subsequently may result in the decrease in proportion of the tourists. The paper tries to find out such types of unexplored locations and the reasons behind, taking Kozhikode district in the state of Kerala, India, as the study area.All the known and unknown tourist places in the district were analyzed and an attempt is made to explore those unexplored tourist locations. Data were collected on the basis of questionnaire survey including how many of them were already aware of each tourist places, how many of them had visited, not visited and the reason(s) behind. Along with this, data pertaining to existing condition and connectivity pattern of each of these locations were identified. It has been inferred that the identified unexplored locations will attract more tourists provided improvements in connectivity are made.

Abstract: Optimal use of road transport system is necessary to address the problems like traffic congestion, air pollution and safety. One such way to optimize is by encouraging use of public transport modes (buses) by assigning priority to them. One of the bus preferential treatments is the provision of exclusive lanes for buses on urban roads. The specific aim of this study is mainly to study the feasibility of provision of exclusive bus lanes based on two criteria, based on proportion of travellers using different types of road vehicles and based on the total travellers’ time savings in terms of money value due to provision of exclusive bus lane on urban roads. The major work element of this study includes vehicle occupancy survey, vehicle volume and composition survey, income survey and estimation of journey time and journey time savings in terms of money value savings. The provision of exclusive bus lanes on urban roads increases the speed of buses, reduces journey time, saves travel cost and reduces road crashes.
Keywords: Exclusive Bus Lane, Money Value Savings, Vehicle Composition, Windshield Method.

Abstract: This study proposesa moisture conditioning process for large-size dprismatic beam specimens of bituminous concrete. Such beams are required for evaluating the fatigue characteristics of bituminous mixtures in a four-point beam bending test. The current moisture conditioning protocols are aimed at cylindrical specimen only, and no guidelines are available for prismatic beams; especially when these beams are compacted to lower air voids content. In this study, prismatic beam specimens of bituminous concrete mixed with VG-30 and CRMB-60 binderwere prepared. In addition to the control samples, warm mix asphalt and lime additive added samples were also produced. Warm mix asphalt was produced using a surfactant based warm mix additive. Lime was added to both hot mix and warm bituminous mixtures. Prismatic beams with target air voids of 4 ± 0.5% and with dimensions of 0.38 ± 0.006 m (length) × 0.050 ± 0.002 m (width) × 0.063 ± 0.002 m (height) were produced. These specimens were subjected to partial vacuum saturation by submerging completely in water. The vacuum pressures and durations were adjusted such that the desired saturation could be achieved. The saturated bituminous concrete beam specimens were mechanically weakened through the freeze-thaw conditioning. It is observed that the binder type plays a significant role in the degree of saturation whereas the influence of additives is negligible on the degree of saturation.
Keywords: Air Voids, Degree of Saturation, Lime, Moisture Conditioning, Prismatic Straight Beam, Vacuum Saturation, WMA Additive.

Abstract: During the past two decades, the issue of rehabilitation of the existing pavements using various techniques is gaining momentum. The use of fibre reinforced concrete for rehabilitation purposes is becoming popular. Fibre reinforced concrete is an economical method to overcome flexural failure, micro cracks etc. Human hair is a non-degradable fibre which can be used as a reinforcement material in concrete overlays. Human hair fibre added concrete can be used as a concrete for cell filling and whitetopping concrete pavement rehabilitation methods to overcome the functional deficiencies of existing bituminous pavements. In whitetopping a concrete overlay is provided over the existing deteriorated bituminous pavement. In Cell Filled concrete overlay a mesh of cell is provided and is filled with concrete. In this study the mechanical properties of whitetopped and cell filled concrete overlays incorporated with human hair is being investigated. A field trail of Cell Filled and Whitetopped concrete with and without hair fibre was tried. Conclusions were drawn based on these laboratory and field studies.
Keywords: Cell Filling, Human Hair, Mechanical Properties, Pavement Rehabilitation, Whitetopping.

Abstract: In recent years, the rapidly increasing vehicular population, deteriorating road conditions, driving environment and human factors has led to a lot of traffic accidents and casualties. If, there exist a mechanism to detect obstructions in the road, and then relay the processed information back to the driver, he may be alerted about the impending danger. The lack of visual stimuli due to blind spots, both vehicular and external is often a leading contributor of road accidents. This paper outlines procedures for calculating and analyzing the factors affecting blind spots for light motor vehicles by quantifying blind spot of the test vehicle with respect to suitable parameters. An opinion survey was conducted to understand driver needs and various opinions were collected and analyzed. An ultrasonic sensor system was developed with the collected blind spot data which maps physical environment around the car, with special care given to blind spots and relay it back to the driver in real time.

Abstract: India is a developing country containing heterogeneous traffic, which is characterized by wide variations in traffic characteristics. The new technologies offer the greatest challenge and hope for improving the quality of traffic system. The ability to apply traffic flow fundamentals is an essential ingredient in working toward improving the transportation system. The present study is concerned with macroscopic traffic flow characteristics observed on 4-lane divided carriageway [Thrissur-Kunnamkulam (SH-69)]. The intention of this paper was to analyse traffic flow, density, and speed for developing a model that provide the exact character of traffic flow. Traffic flow fundamental diagrams are used to characterize the relationship between these parameters. Study of traffic flow involves selection of location, videographic survey, analysis of video recordings, statistical analysis and calculation of basic parameters of traffic flow. Data extracted are compiled for each direction. Scatter diagrams were plotted by using the collected data. The relationship between parameters was developed based on regression analysis using statistical software SPSS 21. The speed-density function obtained was compared to macroscopic models such as Greenshield’s model and Greenberg’s model. By using speed-density model, flow-density and speed-flow relationships are predicted for the given highway. Further validation of the predicted model is done using graphical residual analysis. This succeeded to develop new models enabling theoretical determination traffic parameters for a given urban roadway.

Abstract: In India the number of road crashes is raising at frightening rate. There is one death in every four minutes due to road crashes in India. Hence it is necessary to improve the road safety by conducting a detailed Road Safety Audit (RSA) in order to identify road safety issues and to make necessary improvements. Budgetary constraints limit many developing countries from performing the audit on regular basis. This will eventually delay any rehabilitation or repair process making the road conditions the worst and risky. This paper proposes a systematic approach to do the road safety audit on a highway and to do effective and efficient data mining, for deriving knowledge driven decisions in the classification of highway sections. The approach will help to perform safety evaluation of sections and to identify the crash potential locations. Further output of the work is the development of a mathematical model for classification of highway sections based on road safety audit.

Abstract: An Activity-based model is the one that generally replaces the conventional trip-based model, which is usually represented to as the four-step model. With the variations in the transportation system attributes and changes in socio-demographics of the individuals, the transportation planners and engineers’ need to have the ability to estimate the variations in transportation demand so as to make a well-versed transportation infrastructure planning decision possible. Activity-based models are used for this purpose; these models are used to forecast travel characteristics and usage of transport services under different socio-economic scenarios. An activity-based travel pattern model has been developed for the individuals of the study area. This activity-travel pattern model will take different input parameters such as various land-use, socio-demographic, activity system, and transportation level-of-service attributes. Thus it will provide the activity-travel pattern of each individual in the study area as the output, within the continuous time domain.

Abstract: Environmental impact assessment (EIA) for transportation projects has an integral role in environmental management schemes. All the road works and other transportation infrastructure development programs creates significant impact on various aspects of life. Impacts can be positive or negative. Here an EIA is conducted to study the socio-economic impacts and bio-physical impacts of widening of Thrissur – Vadanapally road project and evaluation of the same. The impact prediction is done by means of good fit models for the existing conditions. Gaussian air dispersion model, CRTN Model for traffic noise, Mass Balance and Streeter- Phelps Equation for water quality analysis were used. With the help of these models, the prediction is done accurately. The predicted impact includes the meteorological and climatic impacts, noise quality, water quality, air quality and social impacts. Water quality changes rises only when there is change in drainage pattern occurs. These change is modelled using the Streeter Phelps equation and the mass balance equations. Air quality modelling was done using the Gaussian dispersion model and the impact of traffic noise was done using the CRTN Models. The air and noise values at the present condition was greater than the prescribed norms of pollution control board. The air quality issues are predominant at distances nearer to the source, as the distance increases the effect of air pollution also decreases. Various mitigation measures are suggested for reducing the impacts predicted or to avoid the impact in each stage of construction.
