Planning and Development of Traffic and Vehicles on the Main and Secondary Transport Roads in the city of Al-Qasim and its Spatial Trends for 2025

Abstract

The research aims to find out the efficiency of spatial roads in terms of their lengths, traffic density and directions, which can contribute to improving the quality and efficiency of the transport and traffic sector, reducing its problems, time management and reducing the waiting period. There are many indicators that can be relied upon to address transportation road problems, and accordingly, it is clear from the research that the center of the district of Al-Qasim formed an area of about (43,394) km2 of the area of Babil province, which is (5333 km2), and its population is about (92,613), while the lengths of roads amounted to about (30,933) vehicles / hour, there is a disparity according to the standard of traffic density according to the above variables, reaching about (0.33) Vehicle / Nessma and the traffic density amounted to (0.236) (vehicle / hectare) and that the neighborhoods located on the main roads Al-Hal-Diwaniyah accounted for (46%), while the neighborhoods located on the secondary roads accounted for (34%) of the city of Al-Qasim. This provides an evidence of the existence of an interconnected and integrated network of main and secondary transport roads, which achieves spatial integration between neighborhoods in the city of Al-Qasim.
