The weaving length of 150 meters may cause congestion during
the peak hour on Outer ring road and may create unsafe conditions
during the lean period.

At the point of merger of ramp loop with the outer ring road the
available carriage way space of 10 mts may not be adequate to
accommodate through traffic comprising of public transport,
personalized vehicles and non motorized vehicles.


traffic which has not been accounted for in traffic projections.

opinion due to shift in function of the existing internal colony road
