The metropolitan transport system is the key of all commercial events which are taking place in country. As population increases it lead to increase in vehicle ownership. Currently all over the world it has been observed an increase in the road traffic and transport demand. The land resources are constant so increases in vehicular growth have serious effect on uninterrupted traffic flow. The neighbouring activity or activities which are taking place around the carriageway of the road are directly or indirectly affecting the capacity of the roadways. The various activities like on street parking, bus stopping on carriageway due to insufficient space at bus station and vehicle are parked on shoulder so pedestrian need to use the carriage way for their movement which decrease the speed of vehicle. Due to all these activities which are running on the carriage way or at side of it creates confusion in the mind of the drivers and affects the movement of vehicle in these areas. This paper attempts to review on influence of road side activities on road traffic characteristic of metropolitan road link. The research work may be useful for the planning and design of such sections where roadside activities are present and difficult to maintain the base condition free from parking and other roadside activity.
