The Suitability Analysis of Bus Stations for Safety In conclusion, it is known that the influence on traffic safety varies with type of bus stop related to various bus stops. The illustration of comparison is shown as following blank. The representation of traffic conflict is showed by the number of 0,1,2,3. The number of 0 means no traffic conflict, and the number of 3 means serious traffic conflict. 228 For non-motor vehicles, bus stops set along isolation area for non-motor vehicle and motor vehicle have fewer conflicts with passengers and no intersection with motor vehicles compared with bus stops set along sidewalk and be more safety. Linear bus stops setting along isolation area Bus bay stops setting along isolation area Linear bus stops setting along sidewalk Bus bay stops setting along sidewalk bus stops setting along outside bus lanes bus stops setting along inside bus lanes buses—non-motor vehicles 0 0 3 1 0 0 buses—motor vehicles 1 1 1 1 0 0 Motor vehicles — non-motor vehicles 0 0 2 0 0 0 motor vehicles—passengers 0 0 1 1 3 0 non-motor vehicles—passengers 1 2 3 0 1 1 In terms of passengers, bus bay stops offer more transfer space providing good safety and bus stop set along sidewalk facilitates reachability of the stops improving safety. In the context of motor vehicles, bus bay stop set along isolation area for non-motor vehicle and motor vehicle reduces disturbance of non-motor vehicle effectively and influences on driving from bus stopping validly, owing higher safety. Besides, setting the bus lanes can avoid confliction between motor vehicles, non-motor vehicles and buses during buses stopping, advancing driving safety obviously. The analysis of applicability is summarized: (i) Bus bay stops should be arranged along isolation area for non-motor vehicle and motor vehicle, and large motor vehicle or non-motor vehicle traffic and high transfer is demand. Or bus stops setting along inside bus lanes can be built for the same situation when road conditions allowed, at the same time, matching pedestrian overpass or pedestrian underpass in order to solve safe crossing. (ii) Bus bay stop along sidewalk is a suitable setting on the condition of larger non-motor vehicle traffic and less motor vehicle traffic, reducing the influence on non-motor vehicles from the procession of bus stopping and improving bus stop safety. Bus stop type Traffic conflict classification 229 (iii) Bus stops set for bus lanes can avoid confliction between buses and motor vehicles when motor vehicle traffic is large and non-motor vehicle traffic is small. (iv) Bus stop along sidewalk can be set to meet stopping demand with less motor vehicle traffic and non-motor traffic considering economy. Download 455.17 Kb. Do'stlaringiz bilan baham: |
