Dimensioning of the Speed-Transition Lanes at the Entering Ramps on the Motorway and Urban Road Intersections

Abstract

Urban roads and streets - an important part of the urban economy. Highways and street and road network of the city form its planning structure. This is the most stable element of urban structure. Urban development is inextricably linked with the city's road network development. This paper analyses and presents, in a concise form, an actual methodology and some insights concerning the defining of the parameters, dimensioning and forming of the junction ramps in the entering zones (acceleration zones) of the same into motorways, highways and main urban streets from the flow capacity point of view.
