Gammons Construction Company,
City A.B.C
Subject: A report on the problems emerging from road network
of the City A.B.C.
INTRODUCTION: With the mushroom growth of population, need
for better road network has become exigent. In compliance to your directive No.
97, I surveyed different parts of the city in the month of July 2011. I also
consulted the traffic police authorities this regard.
TEXT AND CONCLUSION: Throughout the city, the number of
vehicles is increasing rapidly. This is in proportion with the increase in
population. Out flux of public from rural to the urban areas is also a burning
issue. Imbalanced car leasing through banks has also added to the traffic
problem. The roads are old, worn out and shabby. At the most Cantonment Board
repairs the roads which cannot solve the problem. The roads are not wide enough
to assure easy flow of traffic. The barrowers, vendors and hawkers encroach
upon the roads on either side. This renders the already narrow roads still
narrower. Traffic jam is a rule of the day especially on rush hours. The situation
is worse in the down town where there are old streets built on per-partition
construction plans. From 1947 to 2014, tremendous changes have taken place
everywhere except in our systems. The business activities and lifestyle of the
people have changed. People park their vehicles disregarding traffic bylaws.
Factually, there is almost no option open to them. There is no proper parking
area in the vicinity of this hub of commercial activities. The result is
horrible. Emergency cases are nearly too hard to handle. If fire breaks out,
fire brigade department finds it next to impossible to access the spot. The
situation is precarious and precautionary measures are inevitable.
DATA AT A GLANCE:
Location: Commercial Market
Population: 1.5 Lac.
Type of traffic: HTV+LTV.
Sewerage problem: Gutter covers are broken and drains are blocked.
SUGGESTIONS: In the light of my findings, i suggest that:
Encroachment of the roads both by the hawkers and shopkeepers
may be checked.
Parking areas may be allocated.
Offenders may be dealt with an iron hand.
More traffic staff may be appointed.
By pass roads are exigent.
Parking plazas are badly needed.
Loader vehicles may be given night schedule for delivering
goods to the market.
Yours truly,
X.Y.Z
