Influence of geometric elements of roundabouts on circulating lane speed (roundabout)

Original scientific paper

DOI: 10.7251/JTTTP2202057D

Abstract

Research conducted in recent decades has shown that there are significant variations in speed at roundabouts depending on the geometric elements. Due to the characteristics of roundabouts and the way vehicles move, there is a reduction in speed, not only in the roundabout zone, but also in circulation (roundabout). This paper analyzes the influence of different types of roundabouts as one of the elements of the street system, on speed as one of the basic parameters of traffic flow that defines the functionality and quality of traffic conditions.

Keywords: roundabout, speed, circulation, geometric elements.

The influence of the corona virus pandemic on the characteristics of vehicle flow on the e-661 highway

Original scientific paper

DOI: 10.7251/JTTTP2401016G

Abstract

In this work, the characteristics of the traffic flow on the section of the Gradiška- Banja Luka highway, which is part of the European road route E-661, were analyzed in the period from 2019 to 2022. Data on the size of flow requests were taken from the database of the toll station “Jakupovci” on the Gradiška- Banja Luka highway. When defining the size of the flow request, the structure of the traffic flow was also taken into account, in accordance with the categories according to which the toll is collected. The period in which the analysis of flow characteristics was performed also includes the period in which the coronavirus pandemic reigned, when certain travel rules and prohibitions were in force. In accordance with that, the work will specifically analyze the impact of the COVID 19 pandemic on the characteristics of the traffic flow on the Gradiška- Banja Luka highway section. Given that the

„Jakupovci“ toll station is the busiest toll station on the Gradiška- Banja Luka highway, the results of the analysis can be applied to other sections of highways in the Republic of Srpska.
