| dc.description.abstract | Kurunegala is in the Centre of Sri Lanka and connects North and South, East and West. Even though it is in such a strategic point it is not adequately developed to accommodate this transport requirements. Sri Lanka has a road length of nearly 65,000 km. Of these over 25,000 km are classified roads, which belong to classes A, B, C, D and E. These are maintained by Road Development Authority, Provincial Councils, Municipal Councils, Urban Council and Pradeshiya Sabahas. Kurunagala Municipal roads are maintained by Road Development Authority and Municipal Council. To date in Kurunegala Municipal council, there has not been a single traffic survey carried out to identify the present traffic issues. Even though some surveys were canned out by Urban Development Authority, they are not up to the Highway Engineers' expectation. Some other surveys were carried out by Road Development Authority. They were also mostly concerned in certain locations/intersections they were interested in. The above factors motivated me to select Kurunegala for my research work to do a survey covering all aspects of traffic issues and to give proposals to have a better traffic management system for Kurunegala Municipality | en_US |
