ADAPTIVE TRAFFIC CONTROL AS FUNCTION OF SAFETY

The new telematic-based road traffic control technologies enable the application of a large number of various control strategies. Ranging from the fix-time control to adaptive control there is a whole series of combined strategies that eventually depend only on the skills of the traffic expert who by choosing traffic parameters realizes for a certain traffic demand in the given physical conditions, the optimum of throughput capacity and safety. Sometimes this is a difficult task and does not always lead to the desired results. The fact is that experience and practice with the implementation of advanced technologies have the best chance of achieving the best possible results. The work shows an example of adaptive control and the safety results "before" and "after" at an intersection in the City of Zagreb.
