Abstract

Formulation of the problem. An unforeseeable increase in the level of motorization annually leads to the formation of traffic jams on the city's road network. This leads to an increase in time, fuel and emissions into the atmosphere, as well as to traffic delays. To solve this problem, it is necessary to develop the infrastructure, but this usually requires significant financial costs. The goal of the work. Consider the importance and application of traffic monitoring systems. In the problem of traffic jams, on the example of one of the approaches to the city and proposals for improving traffic conditions, decongesting the roadway and ensuring the safety of traffic participants. Basic presentation. Floating car data (FCD) is commonly used to obtain travel data on individual roads and to evaluate traffic data algorithms. FCD, which is GPS data obtained from navigation devices and applications, provides data about the location and speed of the vehicle, which is the basis for the operation of automated traffic control systems. The area on the M-06 Kyiv – Chop highway, km 4+112, was chosen for the study. A special feature of this section is the dedicated left-turn lanes for turning in the opposite direction. Since cars cross the opposite direction during a U-turn, there is a danger of an accident in the areas of conflict points. In addition, there is a problem of traffic jams and a high rate of vehicle delays on this section of the road during "peak hours" To conduct a comparative analysis of traffic conditions on the site before and after the implementation of the solution, the PTV VISSIM software was used and 2 models were created. Data from the WIM system were used as the initial intensity data. Conclusion. This study allows for a more detailed study of the "Transport situation" of traffic conditions and the development of practical recommendations for ensuring road traffic safety with significant volumes of traffic flows.
