Abstracts: Mobility is fundamental to economic and social activities of any country. Mobility is provided by the transportation infrastructure and this has a huge impact on the development and welfare of the population. In several states in India, lack of transportation infrastructure and regulatory controls are jointly impacting economic development. Though there are several modes of transport, road networks cater to the majority of transportation needs. Rural areas have poor access 33% of villages in India still do not have all-weather road and remains cut-off during monsoon. Due to improvement in transportation network, reduction in transportation costs can be realized in numerous ways, such as reduction in travel time, decrease in vehicle operating costs, increased safety and reduction in the level of air and noise pollution. In addition to reduction in transportation cost, it also increases comfort to passengers and also enhancing land value. It will enhance rural and industrial productivity and improve access to social services through lower transportation cost and shorter travel. The main aim of these project is to study the feasibility for construction of flyover at sanand crossroad which has developed tremendously in past few years as the industrial hub of gujarat with many big plants being set up and has thus created a problem of traffic congestion and hence bring a suitable solution to the problem.
