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...

The paper proposed a model for estimating waiting endurance times of electric two-wheelers at signalized intersections using survival analysis method. Waiting duration times were collected by video cameras and they were assigned as censored and uncensored data to distinguish between normal crossing and red-light running behavior. A Cox proportional hazard model was introduced, and variables rev...

Article history: Received: 3.9.2015. Received in revised form: 14.10.2015. Accepted: 19.10.2015. Delay and number of vehicle stops are important indicators that define the level of service of a signalized intersection. Therefore, they are usually considered for optimizing the traffic signal timing. In this study, ANNs are employed to model delay and the number of stops estimation at signalized ...

Signalized diamond interchanges are pairs of ramp intersections characterized by interlocked left turns and relatively close spacing. This paper describes a series of performance measures derived from high-resolution signal controller event data that can be used to optimize the internal phase sequence and offset to improve traffic flows within diamond interchanges and to qualitatively and quant...
