At first it makes acomprehensive analysis of distance headway, including safe distance headway and desired one. Theformer is decided by the demand for the degree of safety, and the latter depends on the motorists'behavior, i.e. the model of traffic flow. Both of them are functions of speed. According to thecharacteristics of their curves, we can find a crossing point that is the capacity of a roadsegment. This capacity represents the maximum flow rate meeting the minimum safety requirement.展开更多

The procedure was extended from homogeneous traffic flow to mixed traffic flow. The conflicts among cars, buses and bicycles near the stop can be described by the extended procedure. The procedure can be understood more easily than the theory of gap acceptance. Car capacity near the stop is the function of both bus stream and bicycle stream. The proposed model can also analyze the cases of pedestrian effects and limited priority of bicyclists. Numerical results show that the car capacity decreases with the increasing flow rates of other streams. In addition, pedestrian effects and bicyclist's limited priority have negative effects on car capacity near bus stops with mixed traffic flow.展开更多
