Magarpatta City gate is experiencing severe evening peak congestion driven by converging office-exit traffic and Hadapsar retail shoppers, with 18 reports this week averaging 3.6/5 severity. Immediate traffic flow interventions at the gate and surrounding junctions can reduce bottleneck impact within 3 weeks.
Conduct a peak-hour traffic count and movement audit at Magarpatta City gate between 5:30 PM and 8:30 PM on three consecutive weekdays to document vehicle volumes, turning conflicts, and pedestrian crossing patterns. Use this data to finalize a lane-use and signal-timing plan.
Deploy two traffic marshals at Magarpatta City main gate during evening peak hours (5:00 PM–8:30 PM) to manually regulate vehicle exit queues and prevent gate-spill onto the main road while permanent measures are implemented.
Install temporary road markings and reflective channelizing delineators to create a dedicated exit lane for Magarpatta City gate traffic, separating it from through-traffic and Hadapsar shopping-area turning vehicles.
Reprogram the nearest signal timings on the Magarpatta Road corridor to extend green phases for outbound Magarpatta exit traffic by 15–20 seconds during the 5:00 PM–8:00 PM window, based on audit findings from Step 1.
Erect 'No Stopping' and directional signage boards (minimum 4 boards) within 200 metres of Magarpatta gate on both approach sides to prevent informal parking and vendor encroachment that narrows the carriageway during peak hours.
Issue a written advisory to Magarpatta City management requesting staggered office-exit timing (e.g., phased exits at 6:00 PM and 6:45 PM) and activation of their internal parking marshaling to reduce simultaneous gate outflow.
Respect new lane markings once they appear · RWA liaisons coordinate with Traffic Police rapid-response group · share specific evidence, not generalised complaints.
