Road Networks are used to move people and transport goods. Mehsana city in Mehsana district of Gujarat state requires detailed network analysis for the development of communication system including roads connecting within the district and with other area adjacent to the Mehsana city with industries, hospitals, Education centers, airport (training base), railway station and bus terminal etc. Inefficient road network system will disrupt the transportation movement, environment and affect efficiency of traffic movement and quality of life. The main objective of this study is to develop a surface transport network system to reduce travel time and cost. In research work prepare an existing route with a station in Google Earth then after completed O-D survey concluded for route extension of Route number 8, the including station ONGC Office, GPERI College and Shanku Water Park. Existing routes of Mehsana City have been studied and alternative routes have been suggested for proper planning of road network system using Google Earth and GIS. Network analysis is being carried out to solve the problems pertaining to spatial networks including the most efficient travel route, generating travel directions, locating the closest facility, and defining service areas based on travel time and distance covered using geo-informatics technology.
