Abstract

In recent years, my country’s road infrastructure has been vigorously constructed, urban road network density has increased, and road intersections have also been formed. There are more and more T-shaped intersections. Such intersections often have the characteristics of serious traffic intertwining and difficult traffic organization. Opposite the intersection of Zhan Qian Road and Min Zhu Zhong Road is the railway station. A large number of pedestrians have to pass through the intersection at rush hour or when the train arrives at the station. This road has a lot of people and a large number of non-motorized vehicles. The signal lights at the intersection are not perfect, and the traffic demand is large. In this paper, based on the current signal timing plan and the current status of the crosswalk at the intersection, based on the actual current data survey and service level analysis, the optimization design of the intersection signal timing plan and the crosswalk width optimization are completed. The results showed that the average delay at the intersection was improved by nearly 21 seconds, and the crosswalk lengths at the east entrance, west entrance and north entrance were optimized to 2.5m, 2.4m and 2.6m, respectively. Improved road capacity and reduced vehicle delays.
