Riau street in Pekanbaru classified as secondary arterial roads with solid activit s so susceptible to the problem of traffic. The physical condition of damaged roads, land use mix and irregular, activities of right and left side crowded streets, parking inadequate, lack of public transport, and the behavior of road users who are not orderly, is the picture of the problem of traffic that occurs on the Riau street. This is supported also by the growth in the number of private vehicles. The accumulation of a variety of symptoms that led to the road capacity can no longer accommodate the volume of passing vehicles, causing traffic delays. One way to unravel this problem is to assess the public's perception of road users alternative solutions to problems related to urban transport in Riau street. The method used is descriptive quantitative with the number of respondents 100 people and supported by a statement from the policy holder of the traffic in the city of Pekanbaru . Public perception related factors causing transportation problems in Riau street is the traffic policy is less strict in discipline of road users, the traffic volume exceeds the capacity of the road, setting traffic light rigid, road users are not orderly, parking space is limited, public transport is limited, and the illegal parking. Alternative solutions is the increase in traffic policy, modify or regulate the flow of traffic, optimization of public transport facilities and infrastructure, restrictions on the use of private vehicles, road widening, traffic lights adjustment, socialization regulation and enforcement, and the construction of flyovers..

Current road users cannot be separated from the number of violators, therefore traffic lights are made to regulate traffic on the road. At traffic lights, there is also a zebra crossing which serves as a means of crossing the road for pedestrians. To minimize violations at road intersections, researchers designed a tool to detect traffic violations. Traffic violation detection tool is made in prototype form using a control system with Arduino nano and software. This traffic light system uses LDR and laser sensors to detect these violations by cutting the laser which sends light to the LDR. This tool is also equipped with a webcam camera that functions to photograph violations that occur and a buzzer that functions as a warning to officers and riders in the event of a violation with an average response speed of the webcam of 2.37 seconds and the average response speed of the buzzer is 0.4 seconds. . The snapshot from the webcam is saved automatically on your PC / Laptop.

The Road

With the growth of the road transport fleet and increase of urban agglomerations, the availability of private transport on the streets of cities with a population over 500 thousand inhabitants is quite noticeable. The previously developed general plans of such settlements, in modern realities, are impossible to implement both from a financial point of view and in terms of the urban space organization. Given the impossibility of meeting the needs of private car users, public transport comes first in the priorities of urban mobility. Problematic areas of the road network in many western Ukrainian cities are those that are densely populated. In such cases, it is not always possible to redesign elements of street sections or intersections, so the traffic management improvement is limited to organizational measures. Among them, the most popular and least expensive are the change the modes of light control at intersections. Considering modern opportunities, technical means and scientific achievements, the capacity of signalized intersections is high. The same applies to the principles of giving priority to public transport over time (at signalized intersections). At present, a significant number of methods and algorithms for detecting and heading the movement of public transport at traffic lights have been developed, however, the criteria for the application of each of them are not fully understood. As a result of the conducted research, the change of queues in front of stop-lines at intersections depending on types of signalization is defined. The results showed that the existing type of control creates significant traffic delays on secondary streets. As a result, it is proposed to use adaptive control, which provides for the adjustment of the traffic light cycle in the presence of tram traffic. Using traffic simulation tools, it became possible to choose different modes of traffic lights control at intersections, which can provide public transport priority, while minimizing the negative impact on the adjacent elements of the road network.

Transport Telematics

The number of vehicles on the roads of Almaty, Kazakhstan is growing from year to year. This brings about an increasing intensity and density of traffic flows in the streets which leads to congestion, decreasing speed of the traffic flow, increasing environmental pollution caused by car emissions, and which can potentially lead to the road traffic accidents (RTA), including fatalities. While the number of injuries grows up mainly due to drivers’ non-compliance with the speed limit, the environmental pollution is caused by longer traffic jams. Therefore, to reduce the level of road traffic injuries and emissions into the environment it is necessary to ensure the uniform movement of traffic flows in cities. Currently, one of the effective ways to do it is the use of transport telematics systems, in particular, control systems for road signs, road boards and traffic lights. The paper presents an analysis of existing systems and methods of traffic light regulation. The  analyses of the systems and methods are based on the use of homogeneous data, that is the data on standard parameters of traffic flows. The need in collecting and analyzing additional semi-structured data on the factors that have a significant impact on the traffic flows parameters in cities is shown as well. The work is dedicated to solving the problem of analysis and forecast of traffic flows in the city of Almaty, Kazakhstan. GPS data on the location of individual vehicles is used as the initial data for solving this problem. By projecting the obtained information onto the graph of the city's transport network, as well as using additional filtering, it is possible to obtain an estimate of individual parameters of traffic flows. These parameters are used for short-term forecast of the changes in the city's transport network.

Traffic lights play such important role in traffic management to control the traffic on the road. Situation at traffic light area is getting worse especially in the event of emergency cases. During traffic congestion, it is difficult for emergency vehicle to cross the road which involves many junctions. This situation leads to unsafe conditions which may cause accident. An Automatic Traffic Light Controller for Emergency Vehicle is designed and developed to help emergency vehicle crossing the road at traffic light junction during emergency situation. This project used Peripheral Interface Controller (PIC) to program a priority-based traffic light controller for emergency vehicle. During emergency cases, emergency vehicle like ambulance can trigger the traffic light signal to change from red to green in order to make clearance for its path automatically. Using Radio Frequency (RF) the traffic light operation will turn back to normal when the ambulance finishes crossing the road. Result showed the design is capable to response within the range of 55 meters. This project was successfully designed, implemented and tested.

Public transport is one of the key promoters of sustainable urban transport. To encourage and increase public transport patronage it is important to investigate the route choice behaviours of urban public transit users. This chapter reviews the main developments of modelling urban public transit users’ route choice behaviours in a historical perspective, from the 1960s to the present time. The approaches reviewed for this study include the early heuristic studies on finding the least-cost transit route and all-or-nothing transit assignment, the bus common lines problem, the disaggregate discrete choice models, the deterministic and stochastic user equilibrium transit assignment models, and the recent dynamic transit assignment models. This chapter also provides an outlook for the future directions of modelling transit users’ route choice behaviours. Through the comparison with the development of models for motorists’ route choice and traffic assignment problems, this chapter advocates that transit route choice research should draw inspiration from the research outcomes from the road area, and that the modelling practice of transit users’ route choice should further explore the behavioural complexities.

In this paper, we present a new scheme to intelligently control the cycles and phases of traffic lights by exploiting the road traffic data collected by a wireless sensor network installed on the road. The traffic light controller determines the next phase of traffic lights by applying the Ant Colony Optimazation metaheuristics to the information collected by WSN. The objective of this system is to find an optimal solution that gives the best possible results in terms of reducing the waiting time of vehicles and maximizing the flow crossing the intersection during the green light. The results of simulations by the SUMO traffic simulator confirm the preference of the developed algorithm over the predefined time controller and other dynamic controllers.

The article is devoted to explaining the issue of exploring the patterns of formation of urban traffic flows in case of the development of urban transport systems projects. Existing methods for predicting traffic flow parameters are developed for all drivers of vehicles, regardless of their individual characteristics, and contain only travel time as a parameter. It is proposed to use the route run, travel time, traffic intensity as the possible criteria, the route runs along the main roads, the condition of the road surface, the number of traffic lights on the route, and fatigue when driving. Based on the results of a questionnaire survey of drivers of individual vehicles, the significance of the criteria for choosing a route of movement for drivers with various types of nervous systems is assessed. The most significant criterion was set up when choosing a route for travel is the “condition of the road surface”. The second most important criterion is “run along the route”. The third criterion was “travel time”. The criterion “traffic intensity” has become even less significant for drivers. The next most important criterion was “the route take place over the main roads”. Even less significant was the criterion “quantity of traffic lights on the route”. The criterion “fatigue during movement” became the least significant. To assess the consistency of expert opinions, a concordance coefficient was used. The values of the concordance coefficient showed that there is a consistency of expert opinions both for the total population of drivers and for their groups, divided on the basis of “temperament”. It was found that when choosing a travel route, drivers are guided by numerous criteria. Moreover, the advantage or disadvantage of one or another criterion depends on its individual characteristics, which are determined by the properties of the central nervous system. Keywords: driver, route, traffic flow, vehicle, questionnaire, nervous system, criterion, significance.

Abstract The paper aims to explore the possibilities of improving road traffic in the central area of cities characterized by a longitudinal arrangement of the street network, with application for the case of Pitesti, where the road network in the central area consists of two main roads arranged longitudinally, having one-way regulated traffic, interconnected by several streets. A special traffic problem is reported in the city center: on the main road connecting the two boulevards, the vehicle storage space is insufficient - because the distance between the two road intersections is too small and there is no correlation between the Green phases of traffic lights in the two intersections. The research, based on traffic measurements performed with DataFromSky software and micro-simulation traffic analyses performed with Vissim PTV software, indicated that the best solution is the partial or total correlation of the green time from the traffic light intersections that delimit the connecting road artery. As, almost exclusively, the works dedicated to the correlation of green light of traffic lights treat the problem only along the road arteries, this paper raises a special issue and reveals the possibility of simple solutions, by correlating the traffic lights at the intersections connecting the main arteries.
