Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research report documents the development models for control of signalized diamond interchanges during oversaturated traffic conditions. Oversaturated traffic conditions occur when the average traffic demand exceeds the capacity of the signal system. The dynamic optimization model proposed is the principal product of this research. The control objective of the dynamic model is to provide maximum system productivity as well as minimum delay for a selected roadway system. A special feature predetermined upper limits.

This book was released on 2015 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Increasing individual vehicular traffic is a major concern all around the world. This leads to oversaturation of intersections in no time. Traffic signal control under oversaturated condition is a long lasting challenge. To address this challenge thoroughly, this thesis introduces grade separation at signalized intersections. A lane-based optimization model is developed for the integrated design of interchange ramps (e. g. tunnels), lane markings (e. g. left turns, through traffic, right turns, etc.) and signal timing settings. We take into account two types of lane configurations. One is conventional surface lanes controlled by signals, and the other is grade separated lanes. This problem is formulated as a Mixed Integer Linear Program (MILP), and this can be solved using regular branch in branch out methods. The integer decision variables help in finding if the movement is on grade separated or surface lanes, and also the successor functions to govern the order of signal display. The continuous variables include the assigned lane flow, common flow multiplier, cycle length, and start and duration of green for traffic movements and lanes. The optimized signal time settings and lane configurations are then represented in Vissim simulation. Numerical examples, along with a benefit cost analysis show the great effectiveness of the proposed optimization model.

Book Synopsis Traffic Signal Timing Manual by : U.s. Department of Transportation
Download or read book Traffic Signal Timing Manual written by U.s. Department of Transportation and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-02-20 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report serves as a comprehensive guide to traffic signal timing and documents the tasks completed in association with its development. The focus of this document is on traffic signal control principles, practices, and procedures. It describes the relationship between traffic signal timing and transportation policy and addresses maintenance and operations of traffic signals. It represents a synthesis of traffic signal timing concepts and their application and focuses on the use of detection, related timing parameters, and resulting effects to users at the intersection. It discusses advanced topics briefly to raise awareness related to their use and application. The purpose of the Signal Timing Manual is to provide direction and guidance to managers, supervisors, and practitioners based on sound practice to proactively and comprehensively improve signal timing. The outcome of properly training staff and proactively operating and maintaining traffic signals is signal timing that reduces congestion and fuel consumption ultimately improving our quality of life and the air we breathe. This manual provides an easy-to-use concise, practical and modular guide on signal timing. The elements of signal timing from policy and funding considerations to timing plan development, assessment, and maintenance are covered in the manual. The manual is the culmination of research into practices across North America and serves as a reference for a range of practitioners, from those involved in the day to day management, operation and maintenance of traffic signals to those that plan, design, operate and maintain these systems.

Book Synopsis Methodology for Traffic Signal Timing in Oversaturated Arterial Networks by : Gye-Hyeong Ahn
Download or read book Methodology for Traffic Signal Timing in Oversaturated Arterial Networks written by Gye-Hyeong Ahn and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A traffic simulation model was developed to provide a methodology for traffic signal timing in oversaturated urban arterial networks. Two control objectives of traffic signal timing in oversaturated conditions were taken into consideration. One was to maximize the number of vehicles processed in an arterial network, which has an oversaturated traffic demand at the entry of the arterial street and moderate traffic demands at the entry of cross streets. The other was to prevent queue spillback or to minimize the occurrence of queue spillback if inevitable. Signal timing offset was the dominant factor affecting system performance; although, link length was also important. When link length is short, the optimum offset is approximately zero, regardless of the cycle length. As link length increases beyond the minimum 200 ft (61 m) tested, for highest efficiency, downstream intersection greens should begin before upstream intersection greens. This relationship, opposite to conventional progression greens, moves downstream queues before incoming platoon arrival. Cross street traffic operations can have significant effects upon arterial performance and system efficiency. System efficiency rapidly deteriorates when any cross street green becomes too short for the link length. Therefore, a "practical" minimum green interval for cross streets is necessary to accommodate upstream cross street through traffic and turning vehicles from the arterial. When the cross street green is shorter than the minimum, even with the best offset combination, queue spillbacks occur on the cross streets and system efficiency deteriorates.

Book excerpt: This report summarizes the results of the National Signal Timing Organization Project initiated by the Federal Highway Administration as a fuel conservation effort. The objectives of this project are: 1) to establish credible data on the effectiveness of signal timing optimization; 2) to make signal timing optimization projects easier to do; and 3) to define the resources (cost, level of staff, computer, etc.) required to undertake a signal timing optimization project, so that traffic engineers and administrators can more effectively budget for this activity. The project consisted of the development of the TRANSYT-7F signal timing optimization program User's Manual, and training course, and application of the program in 11 cities nationwide to evaluate the effectiveness of the poptimized signal timing plans and to collect data on the needed resources.
