Using traditional and intelligent organizational means to solve traffic problems in Baghdad/Maysaloun Intersection
2020
Overview
The widespread use of vehicle has led to new problems in the city because of the need for these vehicles in the organization of movement and parking, especially in areas characterized by increased congestion in the morning and evening peak, which is one of the problems of the great urban growth that hit the city of Baghdad. Accordingly, this study dealt with identifying the traditional and intelligent organizational means to regulate traffic, and the most important specifications and requirements for their distribution within cities. An applied case study of Maysaloun intersection in Al-Ghadeer municipality in Baghdad city was studied for identifying the streets that suffer from the lack of traditional organizational means and the imbalance in their spatial distribution. Through field surveys of the study area, it was noted that the streets suffer from congestion in the morning and evening rush hours resulting from a spatial distribution deficit and a large deficit in the number of traffic signs that have a significant role in regulating traffic and traffic management. Service levels as a street condition were compared with US HCM standards using the HCS2010 program. It was found that all streets of the study area with a service level (LOS) are lower than level (C) and therefore this condition is met by the applicability of Variable message sign (VMS). Finally, a digital photo map using a satellite image of the study area has been prepared as a proposal showing the streets where the requirements for the deployment of intelligent signs (VMS) and basic traffic signs are available to regulate and control the traffic movement and to fill the deficit and imbalance in the number and spatial distribution.
