Abstract

To solve the problem of insufficient utilization of non-motorized lanes and traffic congestion of motor lanes in the cold areas of northern China, priority lanes for non-motorized vehicles are studied. First, the traffic status of the studied sections and intersections is evaluated through traffic investigations. Then, the non-motorized lanes of the basic sections and intersections are transformed into non-motorized priority lanes through the transformation of signs and markings. Finally, the effect of the transformation is evaluated by calculation and simulation methods. The results of the calculations and simulation show that the capacity of the road sections and intersections is improved by varying degrees, the saturation is been reduced, and the traffic situation is improved significantly. Therefore, in the cold areas of the north, for sections and intersections with traffic congestion, non-motorized lanes can be transformed into non-motorized priority lanes, which can not only alleviate traffic congestion but also improve the utilization of non-motorized lanes.
