A Step-by-Step Guide to Traffic Gap-Acceptance Analysis in GoodVision Video Insights
Travel efficiency and traffic safety of non-signalized intersections are the main objectives considered in traffic management and control. Most intersections in cities are controlled by signal lights, no matter what level of traffic volume there is. Even if it may increase safety, it obviously decreases the efficiency of the throughput. On the other hand, there are intersections that have no control which leaves safety and efficiency to the driver’s decision. This in turn may cause severe safety and congestion issues.
Introduction
Non-signalised intersections have more traffic conflict points than signalised ones. To improve traffic safety and decrease traffic delay, it is appropriate to take certain control measures, such as traffic signs or traffic signals. In this respect stop signs and yield signs are the two most common traffic signs for non-signalised intersections. When choosing the control measure, travel management with lower overall delay of traffic is selected as the optimal means.
