Due to consistent development, economic as well as infrastructural, and a lot of lucrative opportunities in the cities, the need for transportation has become very essential. India being a developing country where the population is on the rise, there is a serious traffic issue. The problem of traffic congestion is being faced by most metro cities. In a metro city like Pune, where a lot people converge to every day for their livelihood and for a better standard of living, the traffic problems are even bigger. Hence, it is imperative to study the traffic and transport infrastructure to find out the various causes so as to identify the probable solutions to have a better planned, designed and cost effective road transportation system. This paper attempts to analyze the various causes of the traffic congestion so that suitable improvements can be made to overcome these problems, thereby providing solutions for effective transportation and infrastructural management through the city. The methodology used was a survey of literature and observation and the researcher has tried to identify the factors causing the traffic congestion. The factors identified are categorized in three broad areas namely; people problems, infrastructural problems and implementation and management problems. The researcher has also established relationships between the factors of the three broad categories and how one factor influences the other factors negatively, thereby aggravating the overall Traffic Congestion. Since there is interrelationship among the factors, right policies from the Govt., better planning and implementations on the ground and over all better discipline by the citizens can improve the state of affairs leading to a better traffic and infrastructure management.
