Street mishaps are a main source of death of youngsters between the ages of 10 – 24 during the street
crossing. This paper presents the results of design of subway for the pedestrians who is crossing the considered stretch
from Attapur to tolichowki main road towards mehdipatnam. As the time passed well defined divider as well as
traffic signals are came to existence but somewhere alternative is required to overcome these problems so we planned
to develop subway at mehdipatnam zone for pedestrian crossing .we used manual survey to generate traffic analysis at
mehdipatnam in both directions (i.e towards Gachibowli and koti.) For designing the subway we used “CUT AND
COVER METHOD” to develop the project. The design of subway is done by considering present pedestrian traffic
and also the future trend in increase of pedestrian volume count in this regard we recommend this as the present
existing provisions for pedestrians cannot be expanded or developed due to the increase vehicular traffic in the
considered area of study.
