Abstract

Dhaka-Sylhet highway is one of the most important transportation highways in Bangladesh. The pressure of additional vehicle is increasing at an alarming rate on this highway. The main focus of our paper is to study the present traffic volume scenario of that highway. The purpose of the study is to determine the traffic volume capacity, percentage rate of different types of vehicle and directional distribution of the Dhaka-Sylhet highway. The study has been done into four parts: investigation of the roads and lanes, determination of the existing condition of the highway, collection of the traffic data and finally analyzing of the data we found. From our study it has been seen that the main vehicle percentage of that highway is truck. We also found that volume of the traffic in Sylhet-Dhaka route is greater than that of in the Dhaka-Sylhet route.
