Abstract Urban road network plays an important role in urban local network. The urban road network plays a key role in the urban spatial structure. It is the main city social-economy activities and transportation carrier. An important event of the cultural landscape is that transportation serves as a powerful factor in regional as well as national development. In connectivity network analysis, the term connectivity is known as the quantity of connections between nodes in a given network, so it derives the structure of the road network. Road network, major junctions, retail junctions, major corridors, road density and connectivity can be analyzed using the network connectivity indicators on the GIS platform. Road network dataset is created in ArcGIS which provides the number of transport lines and number of Junctions in study region. One of the most basic features of a transportation network is the network index, such as the alpha, beta, gamma index, etc. There are various indices, and each index has its individual equation for different purposes. It requires road network (line), junction (nodes) to draw connectivity index. Roads density is highest in most of the zones in Aurangabad city and lowest road density recorded in zone A in the north and E is south-west direction. he averages score of the gamma index has been increased from 0.50 in 2001 to 0.53 in 2011 where the average value also increased from 0.44 to 0.48 during this period.
