城市道路交叉口的混合路权是影响现代有轨电车在交叉口通过能力的主要因素,也是工程设计的最大难点,因此设计并研发了一套具备全线路运行仿真评价功能的现代有轨电车一体化仿真系统。该系统具有混合交通环境建模、运行图与交叉口信号方案协调性分析、多交路及成网运行仿真、多用途评价指标输出及可扩展接口等特色功能。仿真运行过程反映有轨电车在区间运行的牵引动力学特征、安全追踪、列车折返以及过岔等作业细节,仿真结果可用于评价交叉口的混合路权及信号控制策略对现代有轨电车运行的影响效果,并结合具体案例展示该仿真系统的基本功能和部分输出指标。该系统有望为现代有轨电车规划设计方案的全面评估提供量化支持。     

厦门BRT 1号线的交通安全设计

研究目的:厦门BRT1号线是国内第一条高架的并预留升级为轨道交通条件的BRT,由于桥上没有设置紧急停车带也没有设置BRT的上下匝道,可能发生的突发事故将会对交通造成堵塞,也可能引发二次交通事故。为了杜绝险情,消除安全隐患,针对高架桥上可能存在的安全风险进行分析,提出有针对性的安全措施。研究结论:通过研究与分析,对高架桥上的故障车辆应在13 min之内安全转移,恢复交通正常运营;同时针对BRT车辆的特性,对车辆和防撞护栏进行了特殊设计,并配合BRT相关的交通安全设施设计等措施,确保行车安全。

Bus Priority Using pre-signals

The need to provide efficient public transport services in urban areas has led to the implementation of bus priority measures in many congested cities. Much interest has recently centred on priority at signal controlled junctions, including the concept of pre-signals, where traffic signals are installed at or near the end of a with-flow bus lane to provide buses with priority access to the downstream junction. Although a number of pre-signals have now been installed in the U.K., particularly in London, there has been very little published research into their design, operation and optimisation. This paper addresses these points through the development of analytical procedures which allow pre-implementation evaluation of specific categories of pre-signals. The paper initially sets out three categories of pre-signal, which have different operating characteristics, different requirements for signalling and different impacts on capacity and delay. Key issues concerning signalling arrangements for these categories are then discussed, together with a summary of the analytical approach adopted and the assumptions required. Equations are developed to allow appropriate signal timings to be calculated for pre-signalised intersections. Further equations are then developed to enable delays to priority and non-priority traffic, with and without pre-signals, to be estimated with delay being taken here as the key performance criterion. The paper concludes with three application examples illustrating how the equations are applied and the impacts of pre-signals in different situations.The analyses confirm the potential benefits of pre-signals, where these signals apply to non-priority traffic only. Where buses are also subject to a pre-signal, it is shown that disbenefits to buses can often occur, unless bus detectors are used to gain priority signalling.

Analytical and simulation approaches to understand combined effects of transit signal priority and road-space priority measures

Transit signal priority (TSP) may be combined with road-space priority (RSP) measures to increase its effectiveness. Previous studies have investigated the combination of TSP and RSP measures, such as TSP with dedicated bus lanes (DBLs) and TSP with queue jump lanes (QJLs). However, in these studies, combined effects are usually not compared with separate effects of each measure. In addition, there is no comprehensive study dedicated to understanding combined effects of TSP and RSP measures. It remains unclear whether combining TSP and RSP measures creates an additive effect where the combined effect of TSP and RSP measures is equal to the sum of their separate effects. The existence of such an additive effect would suggest considerable benefits from combining TSP and RSP measures. This paper explores combined effects of TSP and RSP measures, including TSP with DBLs and TSP with QJLs. Analytical results based on time-space diagrams indicate that at an intersection level, the combined effect on bus delay savings is smaller than the additive effect if there is no nearside bus stop and the traffic condition in the base case is under-saturated or near-saturated. With a near-side bus stop, the combined effect on bus delay savings at an intersection level can be better than the additive effect (or over-additive effect), depending on dwell time, distance from the bus stop to the stop line, traffic demand, and cycle length. In addition, analytical results suggest that at an arterial level, the combined effect on bus delay savings can be the over-additive effect with suitable signal offsets. These results are confirmed by a micro-simulation case study. Combined effects on arterial and side-street traffic delays are also discussed.
