Abstract

Evaluation of performance non-signal intersection on Telekomunikasi Road Intersection – Terusan Buah Batu Road is carried out by considering the geometric conditions of the road, traffic volume, side barriers, and environmental conditions around the intersection. Primary data and secondary data were analyzed by referring to the Indonesian Road Capacity Manual Method (MKJI 1997). From the results of the study, it was found that on Wednesday at 15:20 – 16:20, the maximum capacity value of 9,326/hours exceeded the base capacity of type 324 crossing (Co = 3,200 pcu / hour). The highest degree of saturation (DS) occurs on Monday at 6:20 - 7:20, which is 0.86. This means that the service level value is in class E (0.85 - 1.00). Namely, unstable traffic flow, solid vehicles, stagnant traffic and intersection volume higher are than its capacity, so that crossing conditions require handling. From the data above, it is known that the Telekomunikasi Road intersection - Terusan Buah Batu Road is not feasible to accommodate traffic flows and it needs to be handled by making stop lines, road signs as vehicle lane separators and warning signs, danger signs or by installing traffic signal lights.

Highlights

  • The Telekomunikasi Road Intersection - Buah Batu Road is a type of non-signalized intersection

  • Intersection performance is a condition at the intersection that must be sought to determine the level of achievement of the intersection

  • While based on the calculation of degree of saturation (DS) obtained value of 0.859 occurred on Monday 14th January 2019 at 06.20-207.20, which states that for the service level is in class E (0.85 - 1.00), i.e. the traffic flow is unstable; the vehicle is solid; the traffic is stagnant and the intersection volume is higher than its capacity

Summary

Introduction

The Telekomunikasi Road Intersection - Buah Batu Road is a type of non-signalized intersection. By taking into account the geometric conditions of the road, the volume of traffic flow, side barriers and intersection environment, which is a commercial area, and try to evaluate the performance of the three-arm unsignalized intersection of Telekomunikasi Road - Buah Batu Road, Bandung Regency. The purpose of this study was to determine the traffic behavior at an unsignalized intersection on Telekomunikasi Road - Terusan Buah Batu Road using the Indonesian Road Capacity Manual (MKJI) 1997. The results of this study are expected to be a reference and input for related agencies that are directly or indirectly related directly in traffic to make new planning and steps in accordance with community needs, so that it can be applied in reducing congestion on existing road capacity
