Pedestrian Accidents with Left-turning Traffic at Signalized Intersections: Characteristics, Human Factors and Unconsidered Issues

Developing 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...

Modeling Multiple–Vehicle Property Damage Collisions in Urban Signalized Intersections

Development of disaggregate models for estimating different property damage collision type frequencies in urban intersections has rarely been studied, particularly in Iran. It seems very little research work being implemented for studying the effect factors on collision type frequency at intersections. The main objective of this paper is to develop suitable statistical models to predict types o...

Delay Variability at Signalized Intersections

Delays that individual vehicles may experience at a signalized intersection are usually subject to large variation due to randomness of traffic arrivals and interruption caused by traffic signal control. While such variation may have important implications for the planning, design and analysis of signal controls, currently there is no analytical model available to quantify it. This paper descri...

Automated Vehicle-to-Vehicle Collision Avoidance at Intersections

We present experimental results for an active control Intersection Collision Avoidance (ICA) system implemented on modified Lexus IS250 test vehicles. The system utilizes vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) Dedicated Short-Range Communications (DSRC) to share safety critical state information, allowing for distributed implementation of our provably safe algorithms. Safety is achieved in potential collisio...
