EFFECTS OF MOTORCYCLE ON CAPACITY OF SIGNALIZED INTERSECTIONS

Effects of Rickshaws and Auto-rickshaws on the Capacity of Urban Signalized Intersections

Non-motorized vehicles (i.e. rickshaws) and small size motorized vehicles (i.e. auto-rickshaws) are popular para-transit modes that provided door-to-door service in congested parts of Dhaka metropolitan area. Improper design of signal timing at signalized intersections is one of the reasons of traffic congestion in Dhaka metropolitan area. For capacity analysis, to convert the mixed traffic flo...


 
 
 
 
 
 Increasing the Capacity of Signalized Intersections with Separate Left Turn

Separate turn phases are often used on the approach legs to intersections with heavy left turns. This wastes capacity on the approach because some of its lanes cannot discharge during its green phases. The paper shows that the problem can be eliminated by reorganizing traffic on all the lanes upstream of an intersection using a mid-block pre-signal. If drivers behave deterministically, the capa...
