Abstract

Using motor vehicles, which uses fossil fuels, is connected with emissions. The main goal of cities, towns and also of the state is to keep these emissions as low as possible. Vehicles move on a traffic network where they are forced to accelerate and decelerate due to various impacts. Junctions and traffic jams are examples of these impacts. An important task is to build transport networks and junctions where vehicles can cross the junction as quickly as possible without unnecessary delay and a significant change in speed. This can contribute to lower vehicle fuel consumption and thus lower emissions.

Highlights

  • Nowadays the traffic planning software is commonly used for finding the way how to change the organization of traffic at junctions or on the whole transport network

  • It allows a smooth crossing over the railway track, which connects the towns of Martin and Vrútky

  • The average delay time for each vehicle is shown in the figure number 7

Summary

Introduction

Nowadays the traffic planning software is commonly used for finding the way how to change the organization of traffic at junctions or on the whole transport network. The intersected crossing is located in the centre of Martin It is one of the important roads connecting the city centre with the first class road no. The junction is uncontrolled with four arms and has only one level Close to this junction there is an overpass which allows overcoming the altitude difference between this junction and intersection on the first class road no. It allows a smooth crossing over the railway track, which connects the towns of Martin and Vrútky. This results in a safer and more fluid traffic.
