Analysis of Delay and Travel Time for Pre-timed Traffic Signal Coordination on Close Continuous Intersections

Signal Coordination of consecutive intersections were carried out by thumb rule by coupling the indices depend on ratio of traffic volume to distance as well as modelled flow. As eminent resolution data is easily available from intersections, it becomes desire to analyses the actual stream of vehicle flow better to characterize is signal coordination desirable? As increase in vehicular population causes not only congestion, delay in travel time but also pollution at road. To handle the influence of these travel demand at urban area, signalized intersection present on arterial roads have minimum resistance to flow of traffic for minimizing the travel time. If signalized intersections are coordinated then the time pollution will be optimum, air and noise pollution as well. This paper composed of analysis of the previously developed methodology and results of delay caused due to pre-timed two way signal coordination with least time pollution and environmental pollutions. Traffic efficiency is affected by placing the signalized intersections at close continuous manner. This paper concluded with most suitable methodology and simulation techniques for coordination to reduce the time pollution as well as improve the traffic efficiency.
