Foreshore Estate intersection is in Southern part of Chennai city along Santhome high road has been selected for study. The road inventory survey has been carried out to collect the road geometry such as width of the road, median, footpath etc. The vehicle volume has been collected by performing the survey at four arms of Foreshore Estate intersection. The traffic accumulation graph is developed for the traffic volume at the study intersection, the peak hour and corresponding traffic volume has been assessed. Short and long-term measures are suggested to manage the traffic congestion. As a short term measure change in directional movement and as a long-term measure reconstruction of broken bridge from Pattinambakkam to Besent Nagar are suggested and this will ease the traffic volume at Foreshore Estate Intersection.
