Abstract:

      A road intersection is an important component of urban road system. We investigate the road intersection at Jinan  Erhuan East Road and  Shanda North Road.We also employ VISSIM to simulate, analyze and assess its current situation. Traffic delay and queue length are effectively decreased by such road intersection optimization as channelizing and signal scheduling adjustment, so its traffic capability is significantly increased.

Key words: VISSIM, traffic simulation, traffic signal intersection, traffic signal control, intersection optimization
