Design of Transit Signal Priority at Signalized Intersections with Queue Jumper Lanes
A queue jumper lane is a special bus preferential treatment that combines a short stretch of a special lane with a transit signal priority (TSP) to allow buses to bypass waiting queues of traffic and then to cut out in front of the queue by getting an early green signal. This paper first proposes a signal control design for queue jumper lanes with actuated TSP strategies and then compares its p...
متن کاملModeling of Signal Plans for Transit Signal Priority at Isolated Intersections under Stochastic Condition
Transit signal priority TSP is recognized as having the potential to improve transit service reliability at small cost to general traffic. The popular preference for TSP encounters the challenges of various and challenging test scenarios. According to the stochastic characteristics of traffic flow, the signal timing model was established for TSP at an isolated signal intersection, where the pas...

متن کاملUsing micro-simulation to investigate the safety impacts of transit design alternatives at signalized intersections.
This study investigates the use of crash prediction models and micro-simulation to develop an effective surrogate safety assessment measure at the intersection level. With the use of these tools, hypothetical scenarios can be developed and explored to evaluate the safety impacts of design alternatives in a controlled environment, in which factors not directly associated with the design alternat...
متن کاملOffsetting Opposing Left-Turn Lanes at Signalized Intersections: A Safety Assessment Case Study in Lincoln, Nebraska
Opposing left-turning vehicles at signalized intersections block each others’ view of oncoming traffic. The ability to see oncoming traffic is critical for safe negotiation of left-turns at intersections during a permitted left-turn phase of the signal. Offsetting of opposing left-turn lanes at signalized intersections improves sight distance for left-turning motorists. This paper reports on a ...
