Abstract : Cities and traffic have developed hand-in-hand since the earliest large human settlements. In today’s world, many Indian cities are witnessing a spurt in urban growth. This increase in urban growth is accompanied by the growth in private vehicle ownership. With an explosive growth in the number of automobiles, the demand for parking escalates which result in footpaths and available open spaces being swallowed by informal and formal parking lots. Vidisha as one of the most important city, located at the centre of the Madhya Pradesh state. With the rapid development of economy and infrastructure in the last few years, Vidisha, like many other Indian cities, has met some challenges. Traffic congestion in Vidisha is the one I want to talk in this Research work. Traffic congestion began to trouble people’s lives in the past years, following with dramatic urbanization. People spent much more time on travelling, and their quality of life was threatened. My thesis includes four parts: Introduction, theories and solution on reducing traffic congestion, present condition of the city’s traffic and recommendations for Vidisha city transportation. At the end of research it was concluded that congestion due to illegal and improper parking causes congestion at studied research points. Problem of congestion and jams at intersection must be solved by designing a signalized rotary and proper channelization.
