Abstract

in order to improve the traffic capacity of pedestrian and driving at the intersection and the pedestrian safety, after the field investigation and related data analysis, this paper takes the four-phase intersection of Wuning Road and Changshou Road in Shanghai as an example to study the characteristics of pedestrian crossing traffic and its conflict with the right turning cars from east exit, propose to establish a pedestrian twice crossing facility, and adjust the signal phase setting and timing. Finally, the simulation with VISSIM shows that the setting of the twice crossing facilities can effectively improve the pedestrian capacity, safety and convenience of the intersection, reduce the pedestrian crossing delay for cars and the conflict between the two sides.
