Dynamic analysis of on-street-parking impact on road capacity

Abstract

On-street-parking research has resulted in and conclusions to improve road capacity. The aims of this study to determine the existing condition of road capacity based on-street-park. Dynamic on-street-parking influenced by two indicators, space and time, as well as the scenarios needed if the road capacity does not support. Dynamic analysis was conducted twice, the first one is the study of the traffic volume on-road section with the dynamic parking and queue in each of the three zones in drop-off and pick-up areas. The parking analysis has already used to many studies [1] [2]. Whereas the equations have improved from traffic behaviour approach[3], and dynamic queuing equation model [4] are used for queue analysis [5]. From the results of the analysis, DS values for the road sections before and after the dropoff pick-up area were 0,044, while in the drop-off and pick-up area was 0,155. From the queue analysis, the value of ρ <1 is obtained for all zones. Based on a study location that has 4 lanes in direction, the road configuration scenario is not yet needed, but the road sections before and after the drop-off pick-up area will have a DS value of 0,75 in 2050, while the drop-off pick-up area in 2036. Further research needs to be done by calculating the road’s effective-width due to vehicle parking manoeuvres.
