Unsignalized Intersections in Germany - a State of the Art 1997

摘要: Research results on the field of unsignalized intersections from Germany were some importance for practical application in past also other countries. Since first two international workshops 1988 and 1991 progress has been made aspects theory TWSC intersections. This paper tries to provide short descriptions those new ideas which might be more general interest. Thus contributions following fields are described: two-stage priority, flared minor street entries lanes, as well formulas impedance factors. For roundabouts items explained: current capacity based empirical linear regression technique, a universal gap-acceptance technique roundabouts, reduction by pedestrians Zebra crossings exits roundabouts. Also experience is mentioned, like principles design, safety, experiments with miniroundabouts. The gives brief explanation topics mentioned makes reference publications where these issues explained comprehensively.
