Abstract

Introduction. The destruction of the road network has been going on for more than a year. In this regard, there is a need to restore traffic conditions both in settlements and on the public road network. The solution to this problem should be based on the definition of the criterion for the formation of safe and continuous traffic conditions based on the use of modern traffic flow models. Problems. Improving traffic management using transport modeling in the PTV VISSIM software environment. Taking into account such criteria as throughput and delay. Purpose. Development of a model for the distribution of traffic flows on the road network. Research methods. Analytical and experimental with the use of computer simulation modeling. Results. A simulation of vehicle traffic was carried out for three options on the section of the public road of national importance M-06. The first option took into account the existing traffic conditions on the road section, the second option - in case of an obstacle to traffic in the existing conditions, and the third option - with the implementation of the proposed measures. As a result of the modeling, it was found that under existing conditions, the average speed is 50 km/h, the average delay time is 20.46 seconds, but if an obstacle to traffic appears, the average delay time increases and is 156 seconds, and the average speed, respectively, decreases and is 37 km/h. With the implementation of measures, namely the introduction of the distribution of traffic flows along different routes (bypassing the obstacle), the average delay time decreased compared to option two and is 54.67 s, and the average speed increased by 11.64 km/h. Conclusions. As a result of the work performed, it was proved that transport modeling can be used to analyze various options for developing traffic management measures, in particular, solving the issue of congestion on a particular section of the road. Transportation modeling allows simulating the division of traffic flows into alternative routes and evaluating them according to established criteria. As a result, traffic delays and waiting times are reduced, which significantly affects traffic capacity, road safety, and has a positive socio-economic effect.
