Signal timing optimization design of cross intersection-- A Case study of The intersection of Minzhu South Road and Fengshou Road in Jiaozuo City

Abstract

The capacity of intersection affects the maximum capacity of road to a certain extent. The traffic capacity of the intersection can be improved to some extent by optimizing and adjusting the parameters of the signal timing model. Taking the cross-type intersection at the intersection of Minzhu South Road and Fengshou Road in Jiaozuo City as the research background, this study optimizes the signal timing design for the current intersection, optimizes the signal timing design by using Webster algorithm, and conducts simulation by using traffic simulation software VISSIM. The results showed that the average delay at the intersection was reduced by nearly seven seconds.
