  33. Bridges, Flyovers & Underpasses About 865 cases form different bridges have been reported in six months from September 06 to February 07.

  34. Black Spot Analysis • The location where the number of accidents are high is termed as black spot

  35. Black Spot Analysis • Following Black Spots Have Been Identified And Analyzed • Korangi Road • Numaish Intersection • Jama Cloth Intersection • Matric Board Office • Baloch Colony • Ftc Flyover • Ghani Chowrangi • Haroonabad • Lyari Railway Station & Tcf School • Crown Cinema And Wazir Mansion • Gulbai Intersection • Underconstruction Korangi Industrial Area Road • Northern Bypass And Hub River Road • Five Star Intersection • U-turn On Mai Kolachi Road • Shaheed-e-millat Extension • Sakraan Road • Maulana Shoukat Ali Khan Road ( In Progress)

  36. Korangi Road • Section of Korangi Road from Qayyumabad to end of Korangi Naddi is critical • 678 cases have been reported in last seven months & 24 were expired, most of the cases are reported from this section • Two way traffic is operated on 40 ft wide road • Besides over speeding and overtaking, other factors are:

  37. No Street Lights • Absence of Median • Sand Loading Activity • Shoulder improvement

  38. M.A. Jinnah Road • 1165 cases were reported from Sep 06 to March 07 • M.A. Jinnah road was analyzed in different sections • Numaish Intersection • Jama Cloth Intersection

  39. NUMAISH INTERSECTION • Numaish Intersection is a high-risk zone for pedestrians • Vehicular accidents were reported because of wrong way driving

  40. NUMAISH INTERSECTION • Location of pedestrian bridge & absence of fencing • Wrong way driving practice through Lines Area

  41. Jama Cloth Intersection • Right of way for left turn through Phool Wali Gali was provided without changing the geometry of Intersection • Inadequate provision of pedestrian refuge and bus stop, while there is huge pedestrian flow due to market

  42. Jama Cloth Intersection Allocation of right of way for left turn through Phool Waali Gali without changing geometry of the Intersection

  43. Baloch Colony Inadequate Fencing & Road Crossing

  46. Lyari Railway Station & TCF School • Absence of Fencing • 23 ft high bridge is not user friendly, so underutilized

  47. Lack of Pedestrian Facility Insufficient illumination Crown Cinema & Wazir Mansion • Presence of 2’6” high barrier makes it difficult to cross especially for women and elder people

  48. Gulbai Intersection Obstructed Sight Distance Improperly Designed Islands

  49. Geometry of roundabout Insufficient illumination Gulbai Intersection
