Abstract: Designing a new road bypass alignment has become a crucial part of transportation planning and traffic management inorder to reduce accidents, boost designspeed, cut travel distances, and save fuel. This project is a case study of a comprehensive design process for a new road bypass routing that considers a number of factors, including the terrain, land use, and environmental consequences. A densely populated region of Budhgaon and Kavalapur with an inefficient and accident-prone road network serves as the study area for this investigation. Geographic information system (GIS) data, survey data, and satellite imagery are all used to design the proposed road bypass alignment. The alignment is improved to cut down on travel time, lessen the number of abrupt turns, and increase the road's design speed, by reducing the number of intersections, removing blind curves, and providing appropriate sight distance The 5.820 km long proposed road bypass alignment is designed to improve design speed, shorten travel distances, conserve fuel, and reduction in accidents. The estimated 12% cut in travel distance will result in significant fuel savings. The new road bypass alignment is also intended to improve the local environment by lowering carbon emissions and noise pollution. Overall, this study provides an essential framework for creating a new roadbypass alignment that can help lower accident rates, shorten travel times and conserve fuel. Along with this, Asset Mapping is to be done on this proposed road bypass alignment for public utilities and estimated cost of bypass road is found out

1. INTRODUCTION:
Decentralisedplanningisanapproachofplanninginwhich alllocalorganisationsandinstitutionswilladopt,implement, andmonitortheplanwithouttheassistanceofacentralised organisation. The Decentralizedplanning is the planning whichisadoptedatdifferentlevels.UsingQ-GISsoftwarefor decentralisedplanningisaneffectiveapproachformaking decisions andallocating resourcesthat makesthemost of contemporary geospatial technologies. Q-GIS is a free and open-sourcesoftwarewhichallowsitsusersforgeographic data creation, analysing, and visualising geospatial data. Making decisions about land use, natural resource
management,disasterresponse,andothercrucialtopicsmay be done collaboratively using Q-GIS to analyse data, build and update maps, and make data-driven decisions, along with this it is commonly used for the designing the road alignmentandformappingtheassets
Decentralized planning using Q-GIS software offers an exciting opportunity to promote more effective and equitabledecision-makingandtocreatesustainablesystems thatcanadapttothechangingneedsofcommunitiesover time. To have a proper decentralized planning it is very important to have good and safe means of connectivity to cities, towns and villages. If there is inappropriate connectivity to towns/cities/villages, the decentralized planning tends to fail. At the present if we focus on State Highway 75 of Maharashtra (SH75) it has a curtail importancetodecentralizedplanning.
1.1 PROBLEM STATEMENT:
The region of Budhgaon-Kavalapur area is densely populated these days, these densely populated region is connectedbythestretchof6.200km(Kilometers)ofroad whichisMaharashtraStateHighway75.Alongthisexisting roadtherearenumberofAssetslocatedsuchasIndustries, Institutions,Banks,Hospitalsetc.thisAssetscontributesthe hugeamountoftraffictothisexistingroadduetowhichthe Trafficproblemsoccurswhichultimatelyleadstonumberof accidents in this region. In the region of BudhgaonKavalapurarea,roadsideencroachmenthasbeenincreased, while which contains some of the Historic and Religious monuments, so due to these there is no scope for road widening.
The existing stretch of 6.200 km road contains the numbersofblindcurve,someofthemaretrulysharpwhich hastheangleof90degree,soitbecomesdifficultfordriver of vehicle to pass the curve. For passing the curve one vehiclehastostopandlettheothervehicletopassanddue tothisTrafficproblemmayarises.So,thereisneedtodeal withthisReal-lifeproblemofBudhgaon-Kavalapurarea

1.4 Importance of Highway for economic development of the Sangli District:
Maharashtra is a western state of India, which has the Sangli district. The district's economy is based mostly on agriculture,withmorethanhalfofthepeopleworkinginthe agriculturalsectorandmostofthemhastheagricultureas primeoccupation.Fromtheothercrops,theregioniswellknown for the cultivation of grapes, sugar cane, and turmeric.Thedistrict'smostsignificantcropisgrapes,andit is also the greatest grower of grapes in Maharashtra. The grape cultivation is concentrated in the Tasgaon and Khanapur talukas of the district. Sangli district produces high-quality grapes, particularly the Thompson seedless variety,whichisinhighdemandbothinthedomesticand international markets. Grapes are mainly grown for table consumption,butthedistrictalsoproduceswineandraisins.
Sugar cane is another important crop in Sangli district.Thedistricthasalargenumberofsugarfactories, whichprocessthesugarcaneintosugarandmolasses.Sugar caneisgrownintheKaradandWalwatalukasofthedistrict. Turmeric is another important crop in Sangli district, particularly in the Jath and Atpadi talukas. The district produceshigh-qualityturmericthatishighlysoughtforon both the domestic and international markets. Other crops grown in the district include wheat, jowar, bajra, and legumes. Another significant crop farmed in the area is pomegranates. Pomegranates are primarily farmed in the district's north, particularly in the talukas of Atpadi and Kavathemahankal.Grapes,sugarcane,andturmericarethe three most prominent agricultural products in the Sangli area.Thedistrict'sagriculturaloutputmakesasubstantial contribution to the regional economy, creating jobs and encouraging the expansion of the economy.
