For scientific planning of the road system, it is needed to have a proper data base for existing trafficparameters of the roads. In CBD areas all the commercial activities takes place and it attracts traffic due to growingpopulation, rapid urbanization, and increasing commercial and economic activities. High population generates heavyvehicular traffic which leads to conflict and congestion. The area selected for study has a railway station, bus station,municipal market police station, post office, major hospitals and major administration buildings. So traffic tends to behigh in the area and that may lead to congestion, delay, increase in travel time and increasing fuel consumption. Thespeed-flow relationship has been obtained. Capacity and level of service has been worked out.
