Influence of Connection Lane on the Left of Running Lane on Intersection in Ostrava-Petrkovice

Abstract:

The paper deals with the use of the connection lane on the left of running lane. It is all about its impact on improving traffic flow butt junction, shortening the waiting time required for the safe passage of vehicles on side roads and not the least impact on traffic safety at the intersection with the appearance of the lane. The paper also deals with conflict situations that were identified in the survey.
