STREET AND ROAD NETWORKS OF CITIES AND THEIR ELEMENTS: FEATURES OF THE ORGANIZATION

Abstract

The constant increase in traffic intensity, a significant number of road accidents (accidents), increasing congestion on major city routes lead to the need to increase the efficiency of traffic organization (OR), optimize urban GSOM and improve their transport services, as well as road safety. transport. Concentration along the main city highways of trade and office facilities entails a significant reduction in the capacity of highways due to traffic obstacles in the form of urban passenger transport stops, multiple pedestrian crossings and street parking. Numerous structures that ensure the functioning of the city's transport and road complex require real data on the actual state of loading of urban highways in the planning, reconstruction and management of traffic. Effective operation of the city's GSOM is possible under the condition of: constant control of the use of the actual value of capacity on specific elements of city highways; assessment of the degree of loading of individual elements of the GSOM (areas that are in critical condition due to loading or accident); development and operational implementation of measures to compensate for traffic obstacles.
