Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention belongs to the field of traffic engineering, and in particular relates to a traffic signal setting method for eliminating the left-turn phase at a signal intersection. Background technique
[0002] The traditional intersection design has many conflict points and great potential safety hazards. There are 32 potential conflict points in the two-way two-lane intersection. Vehicles can collide when merging or diverging in the same lane; but the worst-case scenario occurs in the middle of an intersection, where a left-turning vehicle collides with an oncoming straight vehicle.
[0003] However, the existence of left-turn traffic flow not only brings safety problems, but also increases the number of signal phases at the intersection, increases the delay at the intersection to a certain extent, and reduces the vehicle traffic efficiency at the intersection.
[0004] Intersections are the bottleneck of the entire road network traffic operation. ...
