Acceleration and Deceleration Rates of Various Vehicle Categories at Signalized Intersections in Mixed Traffic Conditions

The acceleration and deceleration rates vary from one vehicle type to another. same also exhibits variations in due vast variation their dynamic physical characteristics, ratio between weight power, driver behaviour during manoeuvres. Accurate estimation of is very important for proper signal design ensure minimum control delay vehicles, which are passing through the intersection. present study measures four categories: Two-wheeler, Three-wheeler, Car, Light Commercial Vehicle (LCV), by using Open Street Map (OSM) tracker mobile application. were measured at 24 signalized intersection approaches Hyderabad Warangal cities. developed models each validated based on field data. results showed that predicted close relation with those field. useful predicting average rate different types under mixed poor lane disciplined traffic conditions.
