Abstract
The main challenge that most of the populous satellite cities are facing is traffic congestion that leads to many social, economic, and environmental issues deteriorating the life of the inhabitants. One of the major necessities to deal with this traffic congestion is a good public transportation system. The lack of an appropriate public transportation system leads to problems like deterioration of lifestyle and congestion of traffic which affects the accessibility of people and goods. Accessibility to the important facilities and vehicular mobility are the major concern of the major satellite cities in India. This study focuses on the planning of easy accessibility to the maximum facility locations and its wayfinding through the road network of the case study with the help of the network analysis in geographic information system. The study deals with finding the service area, closest facility, and an optimal route between two locations to improve the accessibility of facility locations in the study area.
