Abstract

Population growth, industrialization, and rapid urbanization have led to problems in urban transportation, and different approaches are needed to solve these problems. In this study, three intersections on a sequential corridor with an isolated control system in Elazig province were examined as an example. Traffic volume measurements were taken during peak hours of all days of the week using built-in cameras in this corridor. The existing geometry of the intersections, control forms, signal cycles, phase durations, and phase plans were also considered. The current situation of the intersections was analyzed and evaluated using microsimulation software (PTV Vissim). Offset times were determined by considering the average speed and distances between the intersections, and coordination was established between the intersections. Four different coordinated states were analyzed and evaluated using microsimulation software by making changes to the intersection geometry, phase, and cycle time diagrams. The delay, number of stops, service level, queue lengths, travel time, and average speed parameters were compared between the current situation and the four different coordinated situations created. As a result of the study, it was found that significant improvements (50% or more) were achieved in the performance criteria considered in the situations of coordinated control compared to the current situation, and these improvements had different values for each criterion and situation. Therefore, it was concluded that coordinated control of intersections instead of isolated controls would be beneficial for urban traffic management, and the reorganization of intersection geometries together with the signal timings and phase plans could contribute to corridor management.

Koordine Kavşaklarda Sinyalizasyon Sistemine Etki Eden Parametrelerin İncelenmesi Vaka Durum Çalışması

Abstract

Kentsel ulaşımda; nüfus fazlalaşması, sanayileşme ve hızlı kentleşme nedeniyle, sorunlar görülmekte ve bu sorunları çözmek amacıyla farklı yaklaşımlara ihtiyaç duyulmaktadır. Yapılan çalışmada, Elazığ ili örneğinde, ayrık (izole) olarak denetlenen ve sıralı şekilde bir koridor üzerinde bulunan üç kavşak incelenmiştir. Bu koridorda bulunan yerleşik kameralar ile haftanın bütün günlerinin zirve saatlerinde trafik hacim ölçümleri yapılmıştır. Ayrıca kavşakların mevcut durumdaki geometrileri, denetim biçimleri, devre, faz süreleri ve faz planları dikkate alınmıştır. Kavşaklara ait mevcut durum, bir mikrosimülasyon yazılımı kullanılarak analiz edilmiş ve değerlendirilmiştir. Kavşaklar arasındaki ortalama hız ve mesafeler dikkate alınarak, ofset süreleri tespit edilmiş ve kavşaklar arasında eşgüdüm (koordinasyon) oluşturulmuştur. Kavşak geometrisi, faz ve devre süresi diyagramları üzerinde değişiklikler yapılarak oluşturulan dört farklı eşgüdümlü durum (senaryo) mikrosimülasyon yazılımıyla analiz edilip değerlendirilmiştir. Mevcut durum ve oluşturulan dört farklı eşgüdümlü durumun performansı; gecikme, durma sayısı, hizmet seviyesi, kuyruk uzunlukları, seyahat süresi ve ortalama hız ölçütlerine göre karşılaştırılmıştır. Çalışmanın sonucunda, mevcut duruma göre, eşgüdümlü (koordine) denetim durumlarında, dikkate alınan performans ölçütlerinde önemli seviyelerde (%50 ve üzerinde) iyileşmeler elde edildiği, bu iyileşmelerin her bir ölçüt ve durum için farklı değerlerde olduğu anlaşılmıştır. Sonuç olarak, incelenen koridor özelinde, kavşakların ayrık denetlenmesi yerine eşgüdümlü biçimde denetlenmesinin kentsel trafik yönetimi açısından faydalı olacağı ve koridor yönetiminde, sinyal sürelerinin yanında, faz planı ve kavşak geometrilerinin de yeniden düzenlenmesinin katkı sağlayabileceği bulgusuna ulaşılmıştır.
