Abstract
In the recent past, the term traffic congestion has emerged as one of the most brutal challenges to face for the engineers, governments, planners and policy makers in almost every country. With ongoing advancements in social and economic structures, fabricated by vehicles-oriented urban development, they have established congestion as an inevitable reality of urban life. Predominantly there are various factors which play a humongous role towards aggravating this problem some of them are listed as: (Speed, Travel time, Delay, Volume) etc. Subsequently, every research demands exhaustive data collection and based upon that, reaching upon suitable methods to overcome the widely spread problem. Speed has emerged as the most important traffic measurement to identify congestion. This phenomenon has been widely classified into two types (i) Recurring and (ii) Nonrecurring. According to the United States Department of Transportation Federal Highway Administration-alone, nonrecurring congestion is responsible for more than 50% of the total traffic congestion, whereas, recurring congestion contributes for about 40%. Extensive collection of data is aimed to be done at several locations in order to measure the maximum number of traffic characteristics. The main emphasis of this paper is aimed towards understanding the techniques used in recurring urban congestion, its types and methods to curtail it with least available manpower. Literature reviews regarding this problem reveals some interesting insights.
