Abstract
Conversion of 2-way roads to 1-way roads or vice versa is not an unusual practice in the pragmatic field of transport engineering. However, there have been few if any mathematical theories developed to investigate the optimal layout of the road network during the conversion of 2-way roads to 1-way roads. This paper discusses fashioning 1-way urban road network design as a Module Orientation Problem (MOP), thereby suggesting various solutions employed in the MOP could be used in the design of 1-way urban road networks. As an illustration, the graph model approach provided by Cheng et al. (1991) is used to formulate the 1-way urban road network design as an MOP. Results obtained are run and further validated using a traffic simulation package, Paramics.
