Bijapur, officially known as Vijayapura, is the district headquarters of Bijapur District of Karnataka state. The district is bounded by Solapur district on the North and Sangali on the North-West, Belgaum district on the West, Bagalkot on the South, Gulbarga on the East and by Raichur on the South-East.
The city was established in the 10th-11th centuries by the Kalyani Chalukyas and was known as Vijayapura (City of victory). The city was passed to Yadavas after Chalukya’s demise. Bijapur came under Muslim influence, first under Allaudin Khalji, the Sultan of Delhi, towards the end of the 13th century, and then under the Bahamani kings of Bidar in 1347.
TRANSPORTATION OF BIJAPUR:
Roadways Roadways: geographically & strategically well connected through major cities by four lane NH-13(Solapur–Mangalore) (now NH50), NH-218 (Hubli–Humnabad) and other state highways. The main stand in Bijapur is near the southwestern side of the citadel, near the city center. Bus services to Badami, Belgaum, Almatti, Gulbarga, Bidar, Hubli and Solapur are frequent. Bijapur is geographically & strategically well connected through major cities by four lane NH 13(Solapur–Mangalore) (now NH50), NH-218 (Hubli–Humnabad) and other state highways. Bijapur is a big road transport hub and its state run bus transport division has 6 depots/units and comes under Kalyana Karnataka Road Transport Corporation (KKRTC) headquartered at Gulbarga. The division plys many premium multi-axle coaches, sleeper coach, sitting push back coach with AC and Non AC with makers like Volvo, Mercedes Benz, Isuzu Tata Motors, Ashok Leyland, Mitsubishi etc. services to Bangalore, Mumbai, Pune, Hyderabad, Mangalore, Mysore, Hubli, Belgaum and other major cities.
Railways Bijapur is well connected by rail with Bangalore and other major cities of India (Mumbai, Hyderabad, Ahmedabad, Hubli and Solapur). It has its own railhead that is located just 2 km (1.2 mi) from the main town.
Bijapur railway station is connected by a broad-gauge railway (Gadag–Hotgi railway line) to Hotgi Junction near Solapur railway station and Kurduvadi railway station on Central Railway towards the north and to Bagalkote and Gadag junction on South Western Railway towards the south. Bijapur is connected with direct trains to Solapur, Bagalkote, Gadag, Dharwad, Ballari, Yeswanthpur (Bangalore), Hubli, Mumbai, Hyderabad and Ahmedabad. Bijapur comes under Hubli division of South Western Railway (SWR)
Air Transport
The nearest airport is at Gulbarga (152 km). Many airlines connect Bijapur to the rest of India via this airport. A greenfield airport which can accommodate ATR 72 & Airbus 320 (expansion afterwards) is currently being built by Karnataka government. Land has already been acquired. Bijapur Airport will be built by the Karnataka State Industrial and Infrastructure Development Corporation (KSIIDC) at a cost of Rs 220 crore. The project site is located 15 km from the city on 727-acre (2.94 km2) of land in Madhubavi villages. The construction has strarted and airport is expected to be ready by August 2023
SHAHAPUR GATE: problem due to immediate curve and improper road attempt to solve the traffic conjuction is been done indone in the report
RAILWAY STSTION FLY-OVER: immediate turn need to be taken towards the vijayapur railway station hence it is the accident prone zone. the major connectivity road to railway station is via bypass and station road causing traffic conjuction
MANGOLI GATE: Mangoli road which is 18m 2way road with the divider Problem: outer side of mangoli gate it creates a bottle neck road and left side of the road leads to kastur colony which creats traffic congestion
VAJRAHANUMAN GATE: since the railway gate is closed every 15m min which leads to traffic congection on all the 5 roads

TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT AND ROAD SAFETY INFRINFRASTRUCTURE
Infrastructure for traffic control and road safety are essential elements of urban planning and transportation systems. They seek to prevent accidents and congestion while ensuring the swift and safe passage of vehicles, pedestrians, and cyclists. Here are some essential components of the infrastructure for traffic control and road safety:
Traffic Signals and Signs: Traffic signals control the flow of traffic at intersections, while signs inform drivers and pedestrians of critical information including speed limits, lane designations, and directions.
Road Markings: Visible and unambiguous road markings, such as lane lines, crosswalks, and stop lines, enable pedestrians and drivers navigate the road, increasing safety and minimising confusion.
Pedestrian Crossings: Designated pedestrian crossings, such as zebra crossings, signalized crosswalks, and pedestrian islands, enhance safety and encourage walking. These areas may include additional safety features like countdown timers and audible signals for visually impaired individuals.
Speed Calming Measures: Speed bumps, speed humps, rumble strips, and raised intersections are examples of physical interventions used to slow down vehicles and promote compliance with speed limits in residential areas and near schools.
Roundabouts: Roundabouts help manage traffic flow at intersections and reduce the severity of accidents by eliminating head-on and high-speed collisions. They can improve traffic efficiency and safety compared to traditional signal-controlled intersections.
Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS): ITS incorporates technology and communication systems to enhance traffic management. This may include traffic surveillance cameras, dynamic message signs, adaptive traffic signal systems, and real-time traveler information to inform drivers about road conditions, accidents, and congestion.
Traffic Enforcement: Strict traffic enforcement through the deployment of police officers, speed cameras, and red-light cameras helps deter violations and improves compliance with traffic rules.
Public Awareness and Education: Road safety campaigns, driver education programs, and public awareness initiatives play a vital role in promoting responsible behavior among road users and reducing accidents. These are just some examples of traffic management and road safety infrastructure. The specific measures implemented may vary depending on the local context, traffic patterns, and infrastructure requirements. Effective traffic management and road safety infrastructure require a comprehensive approach that combines engineering, enforcement, education, and evaluation.

ISSUES
Formation of bottleneck road on the outer side of the fort wall is the main reason for traffic congestion East side of the mangoli gate is the ancient Hanuman temple and west side is the bastion Road that passes through mangoli gate is very narrow i.e, 3m which is the main reason for the formation of bottleneck road

ISSUES
In A Day 47 Train Passes By This Track. At Every 15 Minutes A Train Passes. So We Face A Lot Of Traffic Issues. As It Has 5 Road Which Connects To It. The Gate Is Supposed To Be Closed By Govt. But Due To The Location Of The Flyover, It Is Very Difficult For People To Access It Easily. Due To The Condition Of The Road, The Flyover Is Not Constructed In This Area As The Space Is Very Narrow. As This Area Has A Hanuman Temple, It Is a Very Busy Road On Saturday.
