I'd like to return to the already answered question about the translation of One-way traffic. You have proposed me the variant एकतरफ़ा यातायात with romanization ek-taraphaa yaataayaata. As I know the letter फ़ should be pronounced as f, and फ as ph. So which variant is right: एकतरफा यातायात___ektaraphaa yaataayaata or एकतरफ़ा यातायात___ektarafaa yaataayaata?

No mention further that Nukta(.) should be omitted in Hindi language, it is the essential part of Urdu language.

एकतरफ़ा यातायात ekatarafaa yaataayaat
the correct pronunciation for one way will be एकतरफ़ा only, and for traffic is tha same- यातायात.

एक-तरफ़ा यातायात
I believe that in this case the (f) should be used instead of (ph) as it denotes the meaning correctly.
It is true that (f) is mostly used in Urdu terms but sometimes its use becomes imperitive in Hindi to convey the correct meaning.

एक-मार्गीय यातायात
'Ek-margeey' is adequate Hindi word for 'one-way' whereas 'ek tarfa' is Urdu though it is accepted in Hindi.
Example sentence:
एक-मार्गीय यातायात होने के कारण हमें घूम कर आना पड़ा।
