Effect of Restricted Sight on Right-Turn Driver Behavior with Pedestrians at Signalized Intersection
When the right-turn vehicles share the same phase with pedestrians on divided lanes at intersection, the stopped buses or mediumsize vehicles that closed to the right-turn vehicleswould block the viewof drivers and pedestrians from the far-side of crosswalk.This paper aims at analyzing the changes of lag/gap acceptance behavior with/without considering sight obstruction and the headway of follo...
متن کاملA Pilot Field Study of Influence of Restricted Sight Distances on Gap- Acceptance and Non-Gap-Acceptance RTOR Driving Behaviors
Right turn on red (RTOR) is permitted at signalized intersection in the United States. Adequate intersection sight distances should be provided to ensure that the RTOR drivers turn into receiving lanes safely and efficiently. However, in practice it is not unusual to find signalized intersections with restricted right-turn sight distances, at which RTOR is still permitted. This research is focu...
متن کاملDelay at Signalized Intersection
An intersection is a shared space that is used by more than one approach at a time. A signalized intersection is one where the shared space is used alternatively by a fixed number of approaches for a pre defined time interval as per the phasing scheme used for the intersection. Delay and queuing process are the main characteristics of such an intersection which help in analyzing and designing t...
متن کاملMicro-simulation of vehicle conflicts involving right-turn vehicles at signalized intersections based on cellular automata.
At intersection, vehicles coming from different directions conflict with each other. Improper geometric design and signal settings at signalized intersection will increase occurrence of conflicts between road users and results in a reduction of the safety level. This study established a cellular automata (CA) model to simulate vehicular interactions involving right-turn vehicles (as similar to ...
متن کاملDeveloping an Analytical Model and Simulation of The Contraflow Left-Turn Lane at Signalized Intersections
At some intersections, excessive queue lengths may spill out of the left-turn bay and block the through lanes, jeopardizing level of service for the entire intersection. One of the most effective plans recently presented by the researchers is the "Contraflow left-turn lane" (CLL) In this method, left-turn vehicles will use the nearest lane in the opposite direction in addition to the usual left...
