Abstract

Results of experimental measurements of vehicle queues and practical capacity of traffic lanes that serve straight traffic flows on controlled intersections are reviewed in this work. The main factors that determine the regularities of queue formation and their crossing depending from time parameters of traffic light control and degree of homogeneity (by composition) of traffic flows are determined.
Keywords: traffic flow, traffic flow composition, traffic intensity, practical capacity, controlled intersection, traffic light signalization.
