Abstract: | Present paper focuses on the development of a planning model for upgradation of rural roads keeping Pradhan Mantry Gram Sadak Yoyna (PMGSY) program as the base of this model. Database for the PMGSY roads of Gandevi block of Navasari district in Gujarat state is prepared which includes data like village data, road network & traffic data. Core network is prepared for all the villages under study which can be defined as rural network required for providing ‘basic accesses to all villages. i.e. all villages are connected nearby market centre and essential places from all weather roads. Planning model is classified in two phases. First phase is the network planning and the second phase is upgradation of roads. For the network planning utility values of the villages is calculated by using Delphi technique and on the basis of that alternative routes are decided. For the upgradation of existing roads, Pavement Condition Index (PCI) value of each road is determined and based on these values upgradation of roads are priorities. The rural road network planning methodology for PMGSY roads based on the accessibility concept is presented in this paper and implemented using Geographic Information System (GIS) technology. |
