Abstract

Currently, traffic accidents are prone to happen at intersections. Traffic accidents are closely related to people's security. Thus, it has been one of the key research topics all over the world. Among all the intersections, un-signalized T-intersection is worse, because there are much more traffic conflicts. The rate of accident at such intersections is often much higher than that at regular intersections. Besides, the traffic access efficiency of un-signalized T-intersections is often much lower. Thus, it is very important to study traffic improvement measures to improve the traffic safety level as well as the traffic access efficiency of T-intersections. The traffic improvement measures proposed can be used to provide some reference for road traffic designers.
