Speeding is a complex problem involving the interaction of various factors like public attitudes, road user behavior, road geometrics. Urban areas face traffic problems due to the growth in urban population and congestion. Majority of accidents are due to over speeding of vehicles irrespective of speed limits in urban areas. The rapid growth of personal vehicles, different forms of public transport vehicles are struggling to meet the mobility demands of city residents. This ultimately leads to reduction in Level Of Service of the roads. So it is necessary to improve road safety and…mehr

Speeding is a complex problem involving the interaction of various factors like public attitudes, road user behavior, road geometrics. Urban areas face traffic problems due to the growth in urban population and congestion. Majority of accidents are due to over speeding of vehicles irrespective of speed limits in urban areas. The rapid growth of personal vehicles, different forms of public transport vehicles are struggling to meet the mobility demands of city residents. This ultimately leads to reduction in Level Of Service of the roads. So it is necessary to improve road safety and transportation facilities to tackle the mobility problems in India.ITS has a significant potential to enhance traffic safety and management. This study overlooks the importance of Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) application in Indian scenario taking Tiruchirappalli as the study area. The study area comprises of 24 roads where traffic volume, spot speed and accident data were collected as preliminary data and analyzed. The speed profiling of the roads with high accident rate were carried out to understand the speed conditions along these roads.
