Abstract
A general queueing theory model for traffic flow at unsignalized intersections is described and analysed which contains most of the mathematical models developed in the literature as special cases. Thus a consistent approach is presented for obtaining these models from a general viewpoint. Included are green-red models which are based on an analogy to traffic signals. Critical gaps and merging times or move-up times are allowed to be stochastically dependent. Inconsistent and consistent driver behaviour is considered. Platooning of the major road traffic with random intra-bunch headways is included. The results focus on the distributions of queue lengths and delays and, in particular, on capacities. A general capacity formula is developed and it is shown how the various capacity formulas from the literature come out as special cases. Some numerical results are presented.
