Abstract:

Abstract The context in which this study is conducted is represented by the need to improve road safety at T-intersections, which can be visibility-critical locations and of the risk of accidents. Therefore, this study is important to identify and solve potential problems related to sight distance in road intersections. Case studies on sight distance in intersections are an effective way to assess the impact of the factors that influence it on road safety. Currently, the three-dimensional study allows us to analyze the visibility in detail according to the standards and obtain the sight distan

Abstract:

The current AASHTO policy for sight distance at Stop-controlled intersections is based on a model of the acceleration performance of a minor-road vehicle turning left or right onto a major road and the deceleration performance of the following major road vehicle. An alternative intersection sight distance model based on gap acceptance is developed and quantified. Field studies that were performed to determine the critical gaps appropriate for use in sight distance design are described. It is recommended that the sight distance along the major road for a passenger car at a Stop-controlled inter

Abstract:

Current methods for evaluating level of service at two-way stop-controlled intersections do not account for safety considerations. One of the most important factors influencing intersection safety is the availability of adequate sight distance. However, current recommended intersection sight distance criteria do not explicitly consider variability in traffic composition, vehicle characteristics, pavement conditions, or driver characteristics such as perception-reaction time and minimum gap acceptance. Research was therefore undertaken to develop and validate a method where the safety of a two-

Abstract:

Recent road accident statistics indicate that more than 30% of accidents occur at intersections. Whereas, total percentage of intersections present in the entire road network is less than 2%. From design point of view, one way to ensure reduction of accidents at intersections is to provide sufficient sight distance and clear sight triangles. However, it was observed that even when minimum sight distance is provided, it does not ensure non-occurrence of accidents because available sight distance at intersection changes with time. Hence there is a need to understand the effect of sight distance

Abstract:

This paper proposes an automated framework that utilizes Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) point cloud data to map and detect road obstacles that impact drivers’ field of view at urban intersections. The framework facilitates the simulation of a driver’s field of vision to estimate the blockage percentage as they approach an intersection. Furthermore, a collision analysis is conducted to examine the relationship between poor visibility and safety. The visibility assessment was used to determine the blockage percentage as a function of intersection control type. The safety assessment indicate

Abstract:

Short sight distances at rural intersections can result in reduced safety including drivers choosing smaller gaps between oncoming vehicles (Yan & Richards, 2010). Conversely, increased sight distances may result in improved driver confidence, but not safety as seen at rail crossings (Ward & Wilde, 1996). Thus, simply increasing sight distances may not result in linear gains in safety. Establishing appropriate lower and upper-visibility limits at rural intersections will minimize operational costs for clearing and grubbing labor and may reduce serious injury and fatal crashes by promot

Abstract:

In urban agglomerations, signalized intersections are common. However, in traffic management, safety-focused strategies are often sacrificed for traffic efficiency by allowing simultaneous multiple conflicting movements. We identified this issue by analyzing the most dangerous signalized intersections in several Polish cities. Our research evaluated whether obstructed sight distances between major and minor traffic streams could be a significant problem at these intersections. To achieve this, we employed existing models of visibility analysis related to stopping sight distance. We determined

The intersection sight distance (ISD) design presented by AASHTO is based on extreme values of the component design variables such as design speed, perception–reaction time (a high percentile), and friction coefficient (a low percentile). A reliability method is presented, based on AASHTO, that does not rely on extreme values but instead considers the moments (mean and variance) of the probability distribution of each random variable. The method also accounts for correlations among the component random variables. In Cases I and II of AASHTO, the variations of the sight distance along both legs

Abstract:

A turbo roundabout uses spiral circulatory roads for effectively counteracting the problems faced in modern multilane roundabouts. First developed in 1996, the turbo roundabout has an advantage over the conventional roundabout regarding capacity and safety. Turbo roundabouts are still in the developing phase in North America, but even in the European subcontinent where they exist in large numbers, reliable analytical studies on the critical parameters of roundabout visibility are lacking. Visibility (sight distance) helps to shape the geometry of the intersection and aids in safety. This paper

Abstract:

The introduction of autonomous vehicles (AVs) on roadways will result in a mixed vehicle environment consisting of these vehicles and manual vehicles (MVs). This vehicular environment will impact intersection sight distances (ISDs) due to differences in the driving behaviors of AVs and MVs. Currently, ISD design values for stop-controlled intersections are based on AASHTO’s guidelines, which account only for human driver behaviors. However, with AVs in the traffic stream, it is important to assess whether the existing MV-based ISDs are compliant when an AV is present at an intersecting roadway

Intersection safety is one of the most important issues in transportation. Traffic crash analysis—the most popular method to evaluate or assess the safety performance of an intersection—has been used for a long time. However, it is based on a lot of crash data, which need to be accumulated over a long period. In addition, traffic crashes sometimes occur randomly as a result of human driving behavior. Therefore, without sufficient data and crash history, traffic crash analysis may not give an overall evaluation of an intersection's safety performance. This paper introduces an approach to evalua

Abstract:

FHWA has sponsored the development of an expert system for diagnostic review of at-grade intersections on rural two-lane highways as a component of the Interactive Highway Safety Design Model (IHSDM). This system, the Intersection Diagnostic Review Module (IDRM), has been developed because conventional design practices and design review procedures often fail to explicitly address the safety consequences of geometric design decisions. In particular, combinations of geometric features may pose safety problems that current design policies do not address (e.g., an intersection in combination with

Abstract:

A reliability analysis framework is used to evaluate the risk of limited sight distance for permitted left-turn movements due to the presence of opposing left-turn vehicles. Two signalized intersection approaches in the city of Surrey were used as case studies for the framework. Geometric and traffic video data was collected and analyzed using a computer vision tool to extract the input variables probability distributions. The data was used in the reliability analysis where first-order and Importance Sampling methods were performed. The analysis showed that the probability of non-compliance wa

Abstract:

Road safety is key to sustainable mobility. Rapid technological advances have allowed several road safety-related analyses, previously performed in situ, to be conducted virtually. These virtual analyses benefit understanding of how roads operate and how users perceive them. Additionally, they facilitate the assessment of several parameters that are fundamental to road design and operation. The available sight distance (ASD) is one of these parameters that, if not provided adequately, could alter the proper functioning of roads. This study presents a framework to assess the impact of certain f

Abstract:

Improving two-lane highway traffic safety conditions is of practical importance to the traffic system, which has attracted significant research attention within the last decade. Many cost-effective and proactive solutions such as low-cost treatments and roadway safety monitoring programs have been developed to enhance traffic safety performance under prevailing conditions. This study presents research perspectives achieved from the Highway Safety Enhancement Project (HSEP) that assessed safety performance on two-lane highways in Beijing, China. Potential causal factors are identified based on

Abstract:

Trends in automobile and roadway use have changed drastically over the past several years. Changes in the trends include an increase in the percentage of licensed drivers, annual miles driven, and an increase in the number of older drivers. Of particular concern is the increase in the number of older drivers and the question of whether the current design standards adequately meet the needs of the older driver. In this study, the perception-reaction time variable used in calculating intersection sight distance at stop sign-controlled intersections was evaluated. The current design value for the

Abstract:

The current geometric design guide provides a methodology to analyze intersection sight distance for right-turning vehicles at signalized and two-way stop-controlled intersections based on the gaps accepted by the majority of drivers as measured from the field. That methodology is based mainly on driver behavior without considering the actual capabilities of the turning vehicle when accelerating from rest to the speed of the cross-traffic stream. This paper introduced the new design gap concept, which was based on the actual distance and time needed for the turning vehicle to accelerate to the

Abstract:

Current highway design models for required sight distance at stop-sign controlled intersections assume that the perception-reaction time (PRT) required is 2.0 seconds. That is, a 2.0 second interval to perceive, evaluate, decide, and initiate a response, is adequate to cover the range of time it takes real drivers to do this. This experiment evaluated the adequacy of the 2.0 second PRT assumption, including specific consideration of older drivers, who are known to experience relatively greater difficulty at intersections. Subjects in three age groups (20–40; 65–69; and 70+ years old) drove the

Abstract:

Traffic Characteristics Research is vital for designing the required geometric features in the roadway. It includes volume of traffic, speed of traffic, and percentage of trucks or larger vehicles like bus to and fro. Traffic characteristics are broadly classified under two types viz: Road user characteristics and Vehicular characteristics. In this paper, we have studied and assess the traffic condition (volume) at Abubakar Tafawa Balewa University (A.T.B.U), Yelwa campus Gate Bauchi. The volume data was collected using manual volume count. The Traffic Volume assessment data shows that at dail

Abstract:

A multiple-threat accident occurs when a pedestrian attempts to traverse a crosswalk on a multilane road, and the vehicle nearest to the pedestrian yields close to the crosswalk, obscuring the pedestrian’s view of the next lane, and the motorist’s view in the adjacent lane of the pedestrian. This set of circumstances may lead to pedestrians being struck at higher speeds by a vehicle in the adjacent oncoming lane, often resulting in serious injury or a fatality. The present study compared advanced placement of a gateway in-street sign configuration with a gateway deployed at the crosswalk, on t

Abstract:

Vehicles turning left at intersections from opposing left-turn lanes often restrict each other’s sight distance. Previous research has developed guidelines for offsetting opposing left-turn lanes to provide adequate sight distances. Implementation of these guidelines at existing intersections typically involves reconstructing the left-turn lanes. However, the results of the before-and-after studies presented demonstrate that increasing the width of the lane lines between left-turn lanes and the adjacent through lanes also can be used as a means of improving the sight distance between opposing

Abstract:

Many traffic accidents are caused by unforeseen and unexpected events in a site that was hidden from the driver's eyes. Road design parameters determining required visibility are based on relationships formulated decades ago. It is worth reviewing them from time to time in the light of technological developments. In this paper, sight distances for stopping and crossing situations are studied in relation to the assumed visual abilities of autonomous vehicles. Current sight distance requirements at unsignalized intersections are based among others on speeds on the major road and on ac-cepted gap
