Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In urban road spaces such as approach roads to station terminals, it is necessary to design roads to effectively use the limited spaces considering user behavior reacting to geometry and facility allocations. The research focused on the pick-up and drop-off behavior of passenger cars at station sites where stopping positions are not clearly determined and aimed at quantitatively clarify the impact of geometry upon user stopping choice behavior and mechanism of congestion occurrence. Survey results showed that the characteristics of stopping behavior and congestion pattern vary because of different desired stopping durations between pick-up and drop-off vehicles. Traffic simulation model with proposed stopping choice behavior model were able to evaluate efficiency of station sites dependent on geometry and traffic operations.
