LEVEL OF SERVICE CLASSIFICATION FOR URBAN HETEROGENEOUS TRAFFIC: A CASE STUDY OF KANPUR METROPOLIS

摘要: The "Highway Capacity Manual" (HCM, 1985) has defined level of service mostly for developed countries which have a predominant contribution motorized vehicles. There are much fewer models to simulate the urban heterogeneous traffic flow having significant proportion non-motorized These types flows observed in Asia-Pacific region. on roads is highly complex and existing analytical cannot be used predict behavior corridors. A simulation model, can replicate movement traffic, been analyze various environments road system. Traffic studies conducted different Kanpur metropolis. include parameter estimation sub-models system driver modeling. After development model successfully calibrated validated conditions roads. further applied experiments under road, operating conditions. Analysis results estimate criteria this study may also help identify deficiencies an plan alternative improvements attain desired service.
