“…Addressing environmental concerns such as air pollution by promoting cleaner transportation modes is also crucial. Encouraging behavioural change through public education and incentives for eco-friendly commuting habits reinforces sustainable transportation practices [14]. Additionally, policy measures like congestion pricing, fuel taxes, and emission standards play a vital role in managing demand and reducing congestion sustainably, while considering the long-term environmental and societal implications.…”

Traffic congestion in India's densely populated urban centres is a major challenge exacerbated by rapid urbanization and a surge in vehicles surpassing infrastructure growth. Gridlocks and slow-moving vehicles are common due to inadequate road networks and poorly planned intersections, leading to longer commutes, productivity loss, and heightened pollution and safety concerns. Mitigation efforts include infrastructure upgrades and sustainable transportation promotion, implementing Indian Road Congress (IRC) signal design guidelines for intersection optimization and traffic flow management. Pedestrian safety remains critical, requiring comprehensive strategies integrating public transportation enhancement, road infrastructure optimization, and alternative travel modes promotion. Utilizing advanced technology for traffic monitoring, alongside urban planning initiatives prioritizing efficient land use and mixed-use developments, is crucial. Furthermore, policies promoting telecommuting and flexible work schedules can help alleviate the burden of peak-hour traffic. Flyovers offer relief by allowing vehicles to bypass congested areas, improving traffic flow. Congestion indirectly contributes to pollution, emphasizing the importance of catalytic converters in reducing harmful emissions from vehicle exhaust. This comprehensive approach aims to create smoother and more sustainable transportation systems while addressing congestion and pollution issues effectively.
