Traffic Gap Survey

Traffic Gap Survey

For many traffic movements, the road user (such as a motorist, rider, or pedestrian) must choose a gap in the flow of traffic that will allow them to go safely. Examples include vehicles accessing a priority road from a side road or pedestrians crossing a roadway. “Gap acceptance” is the behaviour in question.

The size of the time headway needed to complete the control, the quantity and size of time headways that are available in the traffic stream, and the priority of the move in relation to other traffic movements all affect how difficult it is for the driver to complete an action successfully. 

Traffic conflict points are more at un-signalized intersections than at illuminated ones. It is appropriate to implement some control measures, such as traffic signs or traffic signals, to increase traffic safety and reduce traffic delays. The two most frequent traffic signs for non-signalized intersections are the stop sign and the yield sign. The best option for a control measure is travel management that results in a lower traffic delay overall.

A gap large enough for a vehicle from a minor stream to cross into an important stream without causing an accident or an undue delay in either stream makes an intersection efficient.

In order to complete the gap acceptance, this post offers a simple, step-by-step tutorial and a free Excel utility that may be acquired analysis quickly and easily.

Traffic Gap Survey

The major stream has priority to cross the intersection without dodging the minor stream on non-signalized "T", four-arm intersections, or conventional roundabouts. When minor stream vehicles approach an intersection, they should at the very least slow down (yield sign) or stop (stop sign) and check to see if there is an adequate gap in the major stream. What allowable gap is there at your intersection? We'll demonstrate how to use the survey results to find out more. For the purpose of assessing the intersection service level, measuring vehicle delay is quite important. The actual delay, though, might just be a result of vehicle gaps on both major and smaller streams. Small gaps on main streams result in longer delays in traffic on minor streams, whereas small gaps on smaller streams result in even longer queues there. When combined, they significantly reduce the level of service and frequently result in the suggestion that an intersection be made signal-controlled.
