Microscopic Simulation of Road Traffic Congestions at T- and X-intersections

Abstract

The additional measures for road safety improving on T-shaped intersection with X-shaped one in Kryvyi Rih were introduced in the article. The research object is a road traffic congestion of uncontrolled intersection with main and minor roads. The aim of the study is to determine problem and areas unsafe for vehicle and pedestrian traffic. The part of the road under study consists of T- and X-intersections that may cause the following problems: traffic intensity exceeds the intersection capacity, both drivers and pedestrians violate traffic rules, warning signs are absent or improperly arranged.
