Abstract: As we are heading towards modernisation and development which is a key feature of many developing and developed countries, the population is also improving its standard and quality of lifestyle accordingly. Owning private vehicles which was once a luxury in India has now become common in majority of the population. This is due to the development in economy due to globalisation, national development and various other factors. With the increase of number of vehicles due to globalisation and economic development major concerns regarding traffic congestion, pollution, traffic inconvenience for emergency vehicles are uprising.
