Kabul city the capital of Afghanistan is the most traffic crowded city in Afghanistan. During two decades after interior war the population of Kabul city has increased since 2000, day by day the immigrants are entered to Kabul city from Pakistan and Iran. Also because of lacking facilities in rural areas the most people are shifted to the cities. The traffic congestion is directly related to vehicles and population of a city, so Kabul city roads currently contains about 700 thousands vehicles, while the Kabul city roads normally capable of 100 thousands vehicles. Shahid Mazari Intersection (S.M.I) is one of the most traffic congested area in Kabul city. This study involves planning and design of an effective flyover bridge over S.M.I in order to solve the traffic congestion and give a positive idea to the government that, the same project could remove the traffic congestion around the Kabul city. The approach for this thesis is based of mixed method, a combination of qualitative and quantitative research. Geometric data survey was obtained by secondary data collection via inserting satellite image in to arc GIS and approved by primary method, measuring the roads on the field site. Traffic data survey was recorded by primary method by counting the amount of vehicles on the field site. The new flyover bridge was designed over S.M.I, Using IRC Indian Road Congress, AASHTO and other standard code. In conclusion the designed Flyover at S.M.I is being effective and full of advantages for more than 3 million people of Kabul city.
