Abstract

Compared with simpler road sections such as the direction and speed of traffic flow, the intersection will produce a series of changes in speed density and direction due to the influence of vehicle steering and traffic signal control equipment, which will have a more serious impact on road traffic. . The delay is an important indicator to judge the operation efficiency and service quality of an intersection. In order to reduce the average delay at the intersection of Ren min Avenue and Haidian Wuxi Road in Haikou City, this paper uses manual observation to collect delay-related data, and conducts VISSIM road simulation according to actual road conditions to obtain the average delay data under ideal conditions. The variable method optimizes the signal accessories of each entrance, and designs the left-turn waiting area according to the actual situation, which effectively reduces the average delay at the intersection, and provides a reference and idea for the optimization of road intersections in Haikou City.
