Simulation of a problem section of the street-road network to increase road safety

Abstract

The article is devoted to the issue of increasing the level of road safety (RTS), a road infrastructure management system using simulation modeling is proposed. The aim of the study is to develop a simulation model of a problematic section of the road network (UDS) in the city of Elabuga, to select the optimal parameters for the functioning of traffic lights, which will improve the quality of road infrastructure management, while reducing the risk of occurrence and the severity of a road traffic accident (RTA). The analysis of research in the field of traffic management is carried out, methods are considered that allow assessing the risk of accidents, as well as methods for reducing the severity of the consequences of road accidents.
