Level of Service Calculation for Four-Leg Intersection with Different Types of Priorities

Abstract:

Calculation of an intersection Level of Service (delay values in the intersection) is the basis for subsequent development of the area as well as testing factor for the optimum conditions of road traffic. However just as important in evaluating an intersections is the road priority direction. Bringing together the two necessities, in the current context of development, evaluation junctions also needs to be done based on delays caused by road direction priority and the possible problems it causes. A good road traffic requires a low delay value based on road direction priority.
