Collision Risk Analysis of Design for Traffic Signal Phasing-Sequence at Signalized Intersection

Abstract

To improve the traffic safety at the two-phase intersection, collision risk value between the left-turn vehicle and the straight vehicle in the opposite direction could be used to judge their order. Based on the safety and risk, this method analyzed the process of conflict, modified the operating parameters and then collision risk analysis model was proposed. In the paper, one practical example was given. The result shows that the method can be applied to design the signal phasing-sequence of traffic at signalized intersection, which not only improve safety theory but also provide the theoretical basis for security information service.
