Abstract:
In view of the insufficient researches on shared through-right turn lanes capacity at signalized intersections in China, the paper investigates the traffic operation of shared through-right turn lanes and analyzes the traffic characteristics. Based on the measured data, the saturation headway of vehicle for different shift is analyzed using the T-test statistical method, that the results show that a significant difference between the saturation headway of through and right-turn vehicles are existed. Then, a theoretic model for through-right turn lanes capacity is developed by saturation flow rate correction theory and probability methods. This study provide a theoretical basis for planning, design, transformation, traffic organization, signal timing, operations evaluation and lane setting at signalized intersections.
