dc.descriptionThis presentation outlines the rationale, design and implementation of vehicle free zones and cycling tracks in Visakhapatnam under the Greater Visakhapatnam Municipal Corporation. It describes the city’s geographic setting, demographic profile, industrial base and transport infrastructure, alongside rising pollution linked to port activities, heavy industry, traffic congestion and low bicycle usage. The document details municipal initiatives for pollution reduction, including low carbon mobility planning and designated vehicle free periods. It proposes 11.6 kilometres of dedicated cycling lanes in the central business district, with associated pedestrian improvements, cost estimates and funding sources. Expected outcomes include reduced air and noise pollution, lower fuel consumption, decreased greenhouse gas emissions, improved traffic management and enhanced road safety.
