Car stopper is used to determine the stopping distance of vehicles in parking lots. Parking car stoppers can be made of several materials such as iron, rubber, or plastic. Also, the size can be changed...
Intersection is formed from the intersection of more than one road in highways. There are several types of intersections according to the intersection structure. Main intersection types are controlled intersection, uncontrolled intersections, roundabout intersections, signalized...
The first traffic light used before the invention of automobiles in France to transport the statesman safely to parliament house. It was controlled by an assemble lever and consist of red and green lanterns. The...
Speed Bumps applied to reduce the vehicle speed where the traffic density is low. It is used in many places like, side streets, in front of hospitals, playgrounds, and schools, residential areas or parking lots...
In France, a nine-year-old boy blinded his eyes with a punch by accident while helping his father to make horse harnesses in 1818. A few years later, the boy was sitting in the garden and...
Computer-aided design (CAD); the using of computer technology to show design, drawing and graphic information. It is one of the software covering various fields. It helps to strengthen your entire workflow because of it has...
Intersection types are classified according to the type of intersection of road users. There are two types intersections “Vehicle Intersections” and “Pedestrian Intersections”.
Other names of the smart intersection are “Adaptive intersection”, “dynamic intersection”, “intersection with camera”, “sensor intersection” , “smart traffic management system”, “fully adaptive traffic management system” and its basic definition is ; Detecting vehicle densities...
Smart City is defined as “More livable and sustainable cities that are implemented through inter-stakeholder collaboration, using new technologies and innovative approaches, justified based on data and expertise, and providing solutions that add value to...
The intersection must be examined and analyzed before the establishment of signaling facilities requiring long-term investment and maintenance
To prevent overloading in a certain parts of the traffic network signaling system, it can be installed to guide or regulate the flow rate of the vehicle and direct the blockage in the suitable places.
If accidents occurring by means of the signaling installation and the measures taken to prevent such accidents (for example, speed restrictions, ban on passage or structural access assistance for cyclists and pedestrians) are ineffective the...
Coordinated signaling control systems are systems where different approaches and strategies can be applied in the management of intersections at close distances, which can be called as arterial management
Traffic actuated signalization systems are developed to respond variable traffic demands. Traffic actuated or dynamic traffic management systems are needed for the following reasons
Systems that are not associated with other intersections located near an intersection is called isolated signalization systems
We will try to give information about the difference between loop detectors and traffic cameras which are used as sensors to detect vehicles in signalized intersection management
