Comparison of Capacity of Intersection with Connection Lane on the Left of Running Lane and the other Types of Intersections

Abstract:

The paper deals with problems of capacity assessment of intersection with the connection lane on the left of running lane and intersections with traffic light and roundabouts. The paper describes capacity calculations for controlled intersections and roundabouts according to Czech standards and shows comparison of calculated capacity reserves of these types of intersections with reserves determined on intersection with the connection lane on the left of running lane on concrete example with real traffic flow volume values.
