The Comparison Research of Capacity and Saturation Flow Between China and UK

摘要

In order to ease ever-worsening transportation problems and to improve the utilization of road, this paper takes Chinese traffic capacity and saturation flow to compare with that of UK by collecting video data of 3 intersections of UK and 10 of Beijing China and analyzes the difference and reasons between China and UK. On this basis, we quantitatively analyze the green time lost and quantitatively analyze the capacity and saturation flow of signalized intersections influenced by no-power-driven vehicle. Finally, we put forward several comprehensive resolutions for improving the utilization rate of road and provide suggestions for the authorities.
