Enhancing Safety on Indian Highways: Mitigating Visual Obstructions Caused by Divider Plantations
Aditya Veer Gautam, Anurag Kumar2, Shivangi Dixit, Rajneesh Kumar
Abstract
India's highways, characterized by their ever-increasing traffic volume and diverse mix of vehicles and pedestrians, necessitate robust safety measures. While the environmental and aesthetic benefits of planting trees in highway dividers are undeniable, these plantations can create significant visual obstructions, particularly at locations where dividers are interrupted to allow vehicles to make U-turns or cross the road. This paper delves into the impact of such visual obstructions on road safety in India and proposes practical solutions to mitigate the associated risks.
