Traffic on the existing road is increase due to rapid modernization and industrialization due to extremely growth of vehicles all over the world. Some problems like congestion, delay and pollution remain a big challenge because of this. For continuous movement of vehicles through intersection, efficient traffic signal control is provided at the intersection. Volume, speed and density are the three main parameter of traffic flow. Primary objective of implementing Traffic volume study are designing, planning and improving traffic system. This paper represents the actual traffic behaviour and its characteristics. For which we carried out classified volume count study by Videography method at Majura Gate intersection, Surat, Gujarat, India. Collected data further extracted for the analysis purpose. From the analysis it is concluded that traffic flow influence by flyover-bridge and this flow contains higher percentage of motorcycle, rickshaw and car.
