passengers and public transport vehicles.
• To take up measure of development for improvement of mobility
of people and make city livable.
Objective for the Project
 To assess the existing condition at Railway stations and
plan safe, efficient & environmentally sustainable
means for multimodal integration of bus Services with
sub-urban trains of Mira-Bhainder.
 To rationalize the bus services to sub-urban trains.
Background of city in context of project
• Existing Public Transport :-
• Sub-Urban Trains.
• MBMT, BEST, NMMT, TMT, MSRTC.
• Taxi & auto rickshaw.
• Road Network :- Well connected by road to National High Way.
(Thane, Mumbai & Gujrat)
• Rail Network :- Two railway stations
• Mira Road, Bhainder
• Suburban western local train service viz. Chuchgate to Virar. Two lakh
passengers board-alight everyday at above two stations (total 4 lakh)

Scope of Work
 Delineate Station planning area for the Integration
of bus services with Sub-Urban Local trains
 Existing condition analysis and demand – supply
gap analysis of transportation needs
 Define Mobility Vision and Goals
 Identification of policy measures and individual
projects
 Preparation of a detailed plan involving
stakeholders consultation.
19
Methodology
• Define the scope & goals for the station area
integration
• Data collection & analysis (PTAs and Railways)

facilities
20
Methodology
• Identify Participation and involvement of all
Stakeholders, including that of NGOs & community
organizations.

45
General Findings
 Improper Scheduling of the Buses,
 Traffic Congestion due to high proportion of personal
mode, parking vehicle on road side, Lack of traffic
discipline etc.
 Absence of Information systems for Buses at Railway
Station & vice-versa,
 Noise & Air pollution
 Various activities in the station vicinity
• Hawkers
• Drop off by other vehicles
Findings -Institutional
 Multiplicity of agencies
 Difficulty in coordinating the roles of central, state and
Local Government agencies
 Individual objectives which are inconsistent with overall
development objectives
 Difficulties encountered within individual transport
agencies
 Functional responsibility unrelated to available
resources
47
Findings -Institutional
 Delays in implementation or non implementation of
essential schemes
 Lack of appropriate resources –
 Rarely the transport planning/ execution/ operational
organizations are staffed with the professionals required to
accomplish the given objectives
 Lack of shared goals & Objectives
48
Findings - Infrastructure
 Lack of proper bus terminal with
 basic facility like shelter,
 toilet & water
 Inadequate parking space, un-athorised parking,
 Encroachment of circulating area near railway
station by hawkers
 Lack of foot path leading to transit stops
 Mixing of buses and private vehicles;
49
Findings Operations
• Transfer of passengers from one mode that i.e. From
Local train to Bus services is inconvenient and time
consuming
• Mismatch of bus schedule, frequency and demand of
passengers
• Exposure of users to inclement climate (rains, humid
and hot weather)
Short Term Solution
1. Improvement to circulating area near station by
shifting hawkers, unauthorized parking,
2. Proper lane provision for buses, autorikshaw etc.
3. Rescheduling of buses according to demand,
4. Common fare system for various mode,
5. Dedicated footpath, skywalk up to bus pick-up
point including proper Informatory sign boards,
6. Enforcing of Traffic discipline,
7. Display of information of various mode,
8. Set-up of unilateral body to monitor various
mode of transport,
51
Long Term Solution
Considering the growing population &
potential of the further development of land use,
1. Development of Modern Bus Terminal with basic
amenities,
2. Station area improvement by segregating traffic
on various mode at different level to seamless
access to railway station,
3. Multi-level parking facility for Private vehicles
for convenient inter-chainging,
4. Identifying the new route to promote public
transport,
5. Promotion to NMT
