Developing Mixed Traffic Equivalency Factors to Estimate Saturation Flow at Urban Signalized Intersections

Pinakin Patel, Ashish Dhamaniya

This study proposes a time occupancy approach to estimate passenger car units (PCUs) at urban signalized intersections with different interaction levels between vehicles under saturated green time conditions. The study shows a variation in PCUs with varied traffic and geometric conditions. Traffic …

EFFECT OF TRAFFIC COMPOSITION ON STREAM EQUIVALENCY FACTOR

Milan P. Kacha, Ankit Patel, Pinakin Patel, L.B. Zala

India having different categories of highways with various categories of vehicles. The geometric plan of highways and the number of lanes in highways are affected by the various vehicle operations on 2-lane, 4-lane, 6-lane highways. Different characteristics of vehicles moving on the …

SPEED ESTIMATION MODEL OF VEHICLE AT HORIZONTAL CURVES ON TWO-LANE HIGHWAY

Ankit Patel, Milan P. Kacha, Pinakin Patel, L. B. Zala

In this study, 85th and 98th percentile speed estimation models of vehicle on two-lane rural highways were developed using a statistical technique of multiple regression. Models were developed using spot speed data obtained from five sites out of total eight and data …

Traffic Flow Analysis at Cloverleaf Interchange and Check for the feasibility of Ramp-Metering at the Merging Section of Cloverleaf Interchange

Parth Patel, Amit A. Amin, Pinakin Patel

Merging section is the key point at the cloverleaf interchange for the purpose to merge the vehicle from Ramp to Freeway. This section is the potential for traffic crashes due to the composition of two traffic flow for the same space. This …
