Accident Rate (Referred to CDP Ahmedabad)
Annually, accidents take place in these rates on the roads. High number of accidents take on the two roads since a large number of local roads are ending on a single long stretch. On the low and medium accident roads, the stretches with local roads ending on them is low.

There is no relation between parking provision and land use in our ward. Legal parking is far less as compared to illegal parking throughout the day, not just in the peak hours. This creates chaos and problems making several conflict areas sensitive.
Parking Legal On Street Parking
The legal parking is evidently existing mainly on the periphery of the gardens i.e. Law garden and Parimal garden. CG road has no legal parking which is a grave problem. It sees high traffic due to commercial use whereas no parking provision. This is a planning flaw. 500

Parking Design Carriage way
CG Road
The carriage width of CG road is eaten by the illegal parking. Whereas the parking on Ashram road is planned in a much better manner. However, the speed of vehicles on CG road is faster than Ashram road. This indicates management limitations as even the decreased carriage width is not able to decrease the speed of the vehicles.
