Comprehensive Development Plan – PKDA 2031This corridor needs to be strengthened and alternate alignments to the same needs to be identified.The marine drive road passes through the forest areas in the region. This is unsafe to travel at nightand it has been noticed that the people generally avoid taking that route post sunset.Also the need for better public transport in the region has been felt. Alternate modes of transitbetween Puri and Konark through waterways can be examined. This is not only a joyful experience,especially for the tourists but also helps in easing some of the traffic load of the already stressed PuriKonark link.It is also suggested that there should be better disaster preparedness since the area is vulnerable tofloods. Alternate links to the NH should be strengthened such that evacuation and help during disasterscan permeate the region.It has been noticed during the course of the surveys and the visits to the region that the transportationissues in the urban area are immense and require immediate attention. The town of Puri has toaccommodate a tourist population that is way more than its residential population. This createsproblems like congestion, road encroachments etc. The subsequent sections detail the transportproblems in the town of Puri and the ways and means to address the same.7.3 Travel Scenario in Urban Centres of PKDAThe transport scenario of Puri has been explained in the following sections. The network components,the carrying capacity, the performance, the stress areas and the parking aspects have been identifiedand studied. Puri being a town which has a considerable percentage of the tourist population thevariation of the travel demand in the festive times requires special attention.7.3.1 Existing mobility scenario in Puri townThe two important nodes and junctions within Puri town are Market Chowk and Hospital Chowk. Thesetwo nodes or junctions have several traffic issues. The map given below shows these two squares. Theintersection of two roads of different widths at these squares creates a bottle neck situation.The roads marked in green, cater to two-way traffic and are of lesser width creating congestion. . Theroad indicated in yellow suffers the same problem. This road connects the Jagannath Temple andMarine drive. The flow of the traffic demands higher road surface. The condition of the road is also notgood with multiple pot holes and also high extent of encroachments from the activities along the road.This needs immediate rectification. This road requires special measures such as provision of dividers forthe sake of traffic regulation.Table 7.4: Area and % distribution of roads in Puri townSub ClassesArea(Sq.Km)Area(sq.m)% To TotalLU% To TotalRoadsMajor_Road_NH 0.19 187.78 1.15 12.44Major_Road_SH_ODR 0.00 0.03 0.00 0.00Urban_Roads 0.97 965.51 5.93 63.94Metaled_Earth_Road_Concrete_Village_Roads 0.01 10.81 0.07 0.72Footpath_Cart_Track 0.02 21.52 0.13 1.43Rail_Line 0.14 144.73 0.89 9.58Rail_Station_R_Yard_Storage 0.14 138.59 0.85 9.18CEPT, Ahmedabad 151

NH-203E is the major arterial road runs from KonarkSun Temple towards south of the region. Whereas the second important road SH-13 runs from Templeto Nimapara NAC. The other two major roads are the ring road around sun temple and Konark-Kakatpur road.Transportation facilities cover only 0.65 sq km. of the NAC area which is less than 2% of the total areawhich is far below standards for urban areas. The CDP hence should identify new links in the NAC areaas well as strengthen the regional connectivity.Table 7.5: Area and % distribution of roads in Konark NACSub ClassesArea(Sq.Km)Area(Sq.m)% To TotalLU% To TotalRoadsMajor_Road_NH 0.08 82.12 0.24 12.63Major_Road_SH_ODR 0.03 32.34 0.09 4.98Urban_Roads 0.19 191.15 0.55 29.41Metaled_Earth_Road_Concrete_Village 0.11 112.07 0.32 17.24Footpath_Cart_Track 0.21 211.92 0.61 32.60Rail_Line NA 0.00 0.00 NACEPT, Ahmedabad 152
