Pedestrian safety crossing facility and control method

Abstract

The invention discloses a pedestrian safety crossing facility and a control method, and belongs to the field of traffic safety and the field of road traffic. The pedestrian safety crossing facility isarranged at a crossroad and comprises pedestrian ferry vehicles, handrail machines, pedestrian traffic lights, lane traffic lights, warning lamps and a rail, wherein an isolation belt is arranged inthe middle of a bidirectional running lane, a center safety island is arranged in the middle of a ferry vehicle track, and the track is divided into two sections. One-way control is carried out on thelane traffic lights and the pedestrian traffic lights. The pedestrian ferry vehicles is arranged at four turnings of the crossroad, wherein parking spaces for the ferry vehicles to stop are arrangedin the turnings. Under the action of electric power, the reciprocating movement of the pedestrian ferry vehicles is conducted at the adjacent turnings of the intersection through the rail. According to the pedestrian safety crossing facility and the control method, through coordination matching of the traffic lights and the ferry vehicles, the utilization efficiency and safety of a road are improved, and meanwhile, the waiting time of pedestrians is reduced, the safety coefficient of pedestrian crossing is also increased, thus greatly improving the overall passing efficiency of pedestrians andvehicles.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of traffic safety and the field of road traffic, in particular to a high-efficiency humanized pedestrian safety crossing facility and a control method. Background technique [0002] With the concept of people-oriented sustainable development deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, pedestrian traffic, as an important part of urban traffic, has gradually received attention. Pedestrian crossing facilities are an important link connecting the entire pedestrian system, an important channel for pedestrians to cross the road, and the main area where pedestrians and motor vehicles conflict. The frequent occurrence of illegal pedestrian crossing behavior has attracted more and more people's attention. How to improve the efficiency of pedestrian crossing and crossroads has become an urgent problem that major cities are currently facing. The traditional concept of people is "you can go if you gather enough people, it has not...

Problems solved by technology

However, pedestrians may not pass through the road at one time when crossing the street. Pedestrians and motor vehicles are not fundamentally isolated, which is likely to cause traffic accidents; three-dimensional street crossing facilities include pedestrian bridges and pedestrian tunnels. Pedestrian bridges and pedestrian tunnels are typical urban pedestrians. The three-dimensional street crossing effectively separates the right of way of pedestrians and motor vehicles, and can ensure the traffic safety of pedestrians. However, in terms of convenience, project investment and landscape impact, especially pedestrian bridges, the overpass crossing facilities are not suitable for large-scale deployment.

[0004] The chaos of signal-controlled intersections, long-period signals, and illegal pedestrian crossings form a vicious circle that leads to traffic chaos at intersections
