TRAFFIC ENGINEERING PROBLEMS INVOLVED IN THE SWITCHING PROCESS IN TRAFFIC LANE SIGNALISATION
| 项目名称： | TRAFFIC ENGINEERING PROBLEMS INVOLVED IN THE SWITCHING PROCESS IN TRAFFIC LANE SIGNALISATION |
| 摘要： | TRAFFIC LANE SIGNALISATION MAKES IT POSSIBLE TO INCREASE THE QUALITY OF TRAFFIC FLOW AND CAPACITY ON CERTAIN URBAN MAIN ROADS WITHOUT ANY ADDITIONAL STRUCTURAL MEASURES BEING TAKEN. SINCE THIS TRAFFIC LANE SIGNALISATION IS KEPT FLEXIBLE BECAUSE OF THE VARYING TRAFFIC INTENSITY, THE RESULT IS FREQUENT SWITCHING OR DIFFERENT LANE INSTRUCTIONS FOR DIFFERENT SECTIONS OF ROAD IN ONE DIRECTION. IN THIS CONNECTION THE WORKING GROUP ON "TRAFFIC GUIDANCE" IN THE WORKING COMMITTEE "SIGNALISATION" HAS DEMANDED THE CREATION OF A TRANSITION SIGNAL BETWEEN THE EXTINGUISHING OF THE GREEN ARROW SIGNAL AND THE SWITCHING ON OF THE RED PROHIBITIVE CROSS. THE OBJECT IS TO AVOID THE OCCURRENCE OF DRIVING THROUGH THE RED LIGHT, WHICH CAN BE BROUGHT ABOUT BY DYNAMIC BOUNDARY CONDITIONS OR LACK OF OPPORTUNITY TO CHANGE LANE. THE MAIN OBJECT OF THE WORK IS TO ANALYSE DRIVER BEHAVIOUR. EXTENSIVE TRAFFIC ENGINEERING MEASUREMENTS ARE TO BE UNDERTAKEN. THESE ARE TO BE SUPPORTED BY SIMULATION STUDIES OF POSSIBLE LANE CHANGES IN THE CASE OF A TEMPORAL OR LOCAL CLOSING OF A TRAFFIC LANE. BY ANALYSING ACCIDENTS IT IS HOPED TO OBTAIN INFORMATION ON THE EXTENT TO WHICH CRITICAL SITUATIONS IN RELATION TO SWITCHING DURING TRAFFIC LANE SIGNALISATION ARE REFLECTED IN ACTUAL ACCIDENTS. THESE ACCIDENT STUDIES ARE TO BE SUPPLEMENTED BY DIRECT TRAFFIC OBSERVATIONS USING THE NEW TRAFFIC CONFLICT TECHNIQUE. THE MAIN STUDY IS TO BE FOCUSED ON TRAFFIC LANE SIGNALISATION IN HEERSTRASSE IN BERLIN. IT WILL ALSO BE POSSIBLE TO MAKE BEFORE AND AFTER STUDIES OF THIS ROAD. |
