Abstract

Summary The multi-phase signal control method is one of the important measures to enhance intersection capacities and alleviate urban traffic problems. This paper employs the stopping-line-method to study the capacity model of cross multi-phase signalized intersections and analyses the relevant change of the intersection capacity and cycle length. It studies the intersection capacity in detail under two normal situations, one with one straight lane and one left-turn lane, and the other with two straight lanes and one left-turn lane. Finally, a practical intersection is chosen and its phase design is improved by the method proposed in the paper.
