Outline of Final Research Achievements

We conducted empirical analyses for users risky behaviors and traffic conflicts at signalized intersections, unsignalized intersections and roundabouts in order to introduce the concept of user centered design into the improvement of intersection planning.
As a result, it is revealed that users need to shorten the setback distance of the inflow leg from the viewpoint of reducing turning vehicles risky behaviors, on the other hand, lengthen the setback distance of the outflow leg from the viewpoint of reducing cyclists risky situations. In addition, it is necessary to shorten the clearance time and cycle length at the same time. As for roundabouts, it is found that the necessary deceleration for safety stop near/at crosswalk is high and the movements become unstable due to lack of splitter island, or narrow the road width. For unsignalized intersections, we verified the effect of a safety countermeasure device and the layout near crosswalk through the results of social experiments.
