Modelling the Effects of Traffic-Calming Introduction to Volume–Delay Functions and Traffic Assignment

Traffic calming is introduced to minimise the negative results of motor vehicle use, for example, low safety level or quality life, high noise and pollution. It can be implemented through introduction road infrastructure reducing velocity traffic volume. In this paper, we studied how traffic-calming influences assignment. For research, a measure speed cushions on Stachiewicza street in Krakow was taken. A method extracting trajectories from aerial footage shown, it used build model. given driving characteristics research microscopic modelling, volume–delay BPR functions were estimated—for with without calming. Later, toy network two roads same length, connecting origin destination, simulated using an equilibrium assignment method. Simulations conducted both use PTV Vissim Visum software individual calculations. According there difference volume according aforementioned as function total
