Abstract
Traffic lights are used around the world to control traffic flow in urban road networks in an efficient way. Especially in higher-ranking road sections of road networks, neighbouring intersections with signal control are normally coordinated between each other in order to serve traffic volume on a high quality level. In periodical time intervals, the coordination of signalised intersections needs to be analysed. In this way, it is possible to identify defects in signal control and to adapt traffic control to changed conditions. In this paper, a method for the “Analysis of Traffic Flow in Coordinated Sections of Urban Road Networks by Application of up-to-date Low-Cost Methods” will be presented. The developed method can be used for assessment of traffic flow as well as for identification of defects in signal control in coordinated road sections. It is a stand-alone solution which can be applied independently from local technical equipment of traffic lights. It is expected that the application of the developed analysis method will contribute to a better quality of traffic flow in urban road networks in European as well as in Asian countries.
