简介
Signalized intersections often represent a major source of bus delays in urban environments. One strategy to mitigate this problem is to dedicate an existing car lane for bus-use only and use an additional signal to help minimize interactions between cars and buses. However, this is physically impossible at approaches where only a single travel lane is available for each direction. To this end, this research explores a novel method to provide priority to buses at signalized intersections with single-lane approaches that (nearly) eliminates bus delays while minimizing the negative impacts imparted to cars. Using additional signals to stop cars on the opposing travel lane, the bus can jump a portion of the car queue using the travel lane in the opposite direction. This paper theoretically quantifies the delay savings buses can achieve, and the negative impacts imparted onto cars when this pre-signal strategy is applied. The …
