I Field Measurements of Capacity and Delay at Unsignalized Intersections
C and delay are two major parameters for evaluating intersection operations. While models and procedures are available to estimate these parameters given some other easily obtainable traffic flow parameters, traffic engineers often have to conduct field measurements to verify the results given by available models and procedures. Capacity and delay models are provided by the 1994 update of the H...
متن کاملDeveloping an Analytical Model and Simulation of The Contraflow Left-Turn Lane at Signalized Intersections
At some intersections, excessive queue lengths may spill out of the left-turn bay and block the through lanes, jeopardizing level of service for the entire intersection. One of the most effective plans recently presented by the researchers is the "Contraflow left-turn lane" (CLL) In this method, left-turn vehicles will use the nearest lane in the opposite direction in addition to the usual left...
متن کاملAnalysis of the Safety Characteristics of Unsignalized Intersections
This study is concerned with using multiple approaches for analyzing safety at unsignalized intersections. This was investigated by analyzing total crashes, one of the most frequent crash types at unsignalized intersections (angle crashes) and crash injury severity. Some of the developed methodological techniques in this study are considered recent and have not been extensively applied. Massive...
متن کاملLandscaping of highway medians and roadway safety at unsignalized intersections.
Well-planted and maintained landscaping can help reduce driving stress, provide better visual quality, and decrease over speeding, thus improving roadway safety. Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) Standard Index (SI-546) is one of the more demanding standards in the U.S. for landscaping design criteria at highway medians near intersections. The purposes of this study were to (1) empiri...
متن کاملSafety Effects of Protected Left-Turn Phasing at Signalized Intersections: An Empirical Analysis
Left-turn crashes occur frequently at signalized intersections and often lead to severe injuries. This problem can be addressed through the implementation of protected left-turn signals. This gives left-turning vehicles the right to enter the intersection free from conflict with opposing drivers and pedestrians. The present study analyses the effect of this measure on crash occurrence. The stud...
