Short description of Majid Sarani Road, Khulna

3. Major Problems on Majid Sarani Road :
 Damage Road
 Improper Drainage System
 Lidless Drain & Manhole
 Under Construction Buildings Beside
The Road
 Lack of Parking System
 Illegal Sidewalk Occupation
 Unplanned Connecting Road

4. Damage Road
At several point, the road is highly damaged and unfit to be in use.

5. Reason behind this problem
 Low quality materials
 Unawareness of traffic rules
 Corruption
Solutions
 Using proper materials
 Construct in layers
 Designing for worst case scenario
 Regular maintenance

6. Improper Drainage System
Improper drainage system causes waterlogging on the road.

7. Reason behind this problem
 Over and above disposal of solid waste into the drains
and drainage paths are accounted for the prime causes
of blockage in drainage system and water logging
 Inadequate drainage sections
 Absence of inlets and outlets
 Lack of proper maintenance of existing drainage system
Solutions
 Using impermeable materials
 Installing under path drainage system
 The existing drains and also those will be constructed
shall have to cleaned at regular interval
 Maintenance and cleaning of drains shall have to done at
least once in every year specially before starting of
monsoon season

8. Lidless Drain & Manhole
Lidless drains in several places occurs bad odor and
sometimes accidents too.
Reason behind this problem
 Theft of manhole covers due to the lack of monitoring
of the road safety
 For cleaning purpose
Solutions
 Cover the manholes & strict rules for stealing those.
 Regular maintenance

9. Under Construction Buildings Beside The Road
Some buildings that are currently being constructed beside the road without providing any
safety. That may causes accident and public harm.
Reason behind this problem
 Ignorance to the basic rules of construction safety by
the companies.
 Unawareness about the danger that can happen from it
Solutions
 Maintain strict rules about safety materials so that all
construction companies must follow
 Using safety net
 Using modern instruments
 Using skilled workers

10. Lack of Parking System
Cars are parked on the road which causes the road to be narrowed and occurs traffic jam in peak
hours.

11. Reason behind this problem
 Lack of proper planning
 Insufficient space
 Tendency of breaking rules
Solutions
 Properly utilize the space on the road
side.
 90° car parking

13. Illegal occupancy of sidewalk by parking,
hawkers obstruct the movement of
pedestrian and often causes traffic jam
Illegal Sidewalk Occupation

14. Reason behind this problem
 Unplanned parking
 Hawker/ Illegal small shop
Solutions
 Eviction of the hawker/ small shop
 Make appropriate arrangement for parking

15. There are several roads connected with the
main road which are unplanned and those cause
traffic jam, road crossing problem and
unwanted accidents too.
Unplanned Connecting Road

17. Reason behind this problem
 Narrow connecting point
 Absence of traffic signal system
 Absence of road/ over head crossing
 Vehicle parking
Solutions
 Setting up the signal system
 Make appropriate arrangement for
parking
 Build up over head / road crossing

36. Slovenska Street
Ljubljana City, Slovenia

37. Street Name: Slovenska Cesta in Ljubljana
Location: Ljubljana, Slovenia
Area: 14000 m2

 The New Slovenska Street project is based on cutting-edge
concepts in public space design.
 The former four-lane road was transformed into the central
city avenue.
Information

38.  The main street of the city is the Slovenska
which crosses the city in the north-south
direction.
 Two pairs of large bus stations are placed on
the street
Specification
 It is also the stage for many important events in
the city, such as the marathon and the annual
cycling race, various demonstrations, and the
record-breaking square dance of the city's high-
school graduates.

39. Zoning
Vehicle road
Pedestrian walkway
Bus stoppage
Vegetation
Cycle lane
 The street is divided in
to tree sections, with a
concrete road surface
and paved pedestrian
area.
 Through narrowing of
the roadway there is
now more space for
pedestrians, cyclists
and restaurant and bar
gardens.

40. Section View of The Road

41. Problems & Renovation
 It was a busy four-lane road with
the large volume of pedestrian and
bus traffic
 A car-oriented traffic road
 Vegetation was low
 No safety & space for pedestrian

42.  From car-oriented, the road is transformed into
a space which gives priority to public transport,
pedestrians and cyclists
 By placing two pairs of large bus stations the
street truly becomes a central transport hub for
public transport
 The complete arrangement ties the fragmented
area together into a uniform space with a
prominently green character.
Problems &
Renovation

43. Pedestrian Area
 Through narrowing of the roadway there is now
more space for pedestrians, cyclists and
restaurant and bar gardens
 The urban furniture of the street encourages
people to stop and rest in the space
 Despite the large volume of pedestrian and bus
traffic it is designed as a “shared space”, a space,
where users participate equally, and height
differences are reduced to a minimum.

44. Transport System
 By designing a space which promotes
sustainable mobility and public transport in the
very center, the city has made a key step in it's
transport policy
 The absence of personal motor traffic allows for
the expansion of programs and the creation of
a space with its own character.
 This allows for an optimized bus transportation
service

45. Vegetation & Drainage System
• A new tree line of manna ash trees was planted
on the eastern side of the street, which is lit by
the afternoon sun.
• The manna ash trees are resistant to the urban
environment, and will adorn the space with
white flowers in the spring and bright yellow
foliage in the fall.
• Drainage system is connected with the vegetation
as it is established within the tree plantation
system.
