Urban advancement is a noteworthy issue in metropolitan domains in the country, with enormous impact on economy, travel conduct, land utilize, and purpose behind uneasiness for some drivers. Bangalore today is a standout among the most taken care of urban communities in the country with the great improvement in the IT business and the increase in the amount of openings for work in the city. With the expansion in populace, there is a relating increase in number of vehicles in the city and enormous increment in the interest in area. In Bangalore there is a problem in extension for streets development and the need to utilize existing streets for smooth development of vehicles. These problems get to be compulsory for the organization to assure better parking facilities. Due to increase in the traffic, the waiting time at the signalized intersections increases. In order to minimize the waiting time, the PTV Vissim software is used and models were developed and proposals were made.
