The market has seen a massive spurt in the number of vegetable vendors, this accounts to the eviction of hawkers from nearby markets. The key findings of conflict were between the formal and informal vendors and large scale reproduction of services was observed in the site. Encroachment of entry and exits and the lack of parking space is the primary reason for congestion along the street.
