Dhaka Multi-lane Road Tunnel Feasibility Study Project (Jahangir gate tunnel) Insert Heading Samiul Hossain, SMEC Project Director 26 September 2013
Content • Objective • Flowchart • Survey & Investigation + Data Collection • Road Layout / Traffic Survey • Options • Costs and Economics • Recommendation • Animation
Objective • Bifurcating Mohammodpur bound traffic from Farmgate bound traffic by channelizing traffic flow • Improve transport access and mobility • Reducing traffic congestion • Integrated traffic management
Survey & Investigation • Traffic Survey • Environmental and Social Survey • Topographical Survey • Geotechnical Survey • Stakeholder consultation
Engineering Appraisal • Traffic modeling • Technical appraisal • Economic and financial appraisal • Stakeholder consultation • Environmental and social safeguards
Road Layout / Traffic Survey AADT (Annual Average Daily Traffic): It is the total volume of vehicle traffic of a highway or road for a year divided by 365 days. AADT is a useful and simple measurement of how busy the road is.
Underpass of Kazi Nazrul Islam Ave and Flyover connection to Mohakhali Flyover (Option 6)
Option 7 Note: Option 7 is 2 simple underpasses- one at the Prime Minister’s office intersection lights on Kazi Najrul Islam Avenue and another at the link road network junction near IDB Bhaban. Detailed engineering investigation was not done for this option as the underpasses are near PM’s residence and are not feasible.
Recommendations • Option 2 and 3 • not workable as it would hamper airport’s security • Option 6 • Constructible • Acceptable by stakeholders • Most viable Economically and Financially • Option 6 recommended
Animation – Recommended option 6 Tunnel Animation
