Abstract

In this course of my current research, it is my intention to highlight how the most capacity-sensitive elements of highways should be designed in the function of traffic flow, exit and entry traffic flow and traffic composition. In addition to this, I also analyze whether it is sufficient - on the basis of the simulation test results - to design, and then to implement shorter or longer merging and diverging lanes.

Keywords:

rural highway expressway sections, highwayramps, merging (acceleration) and diverging (deceleration) lanes, traffic simulation, VISSIM
