Abstract

The purpose of this study is to estimate the capacity of two-lane freeway work zone blocking one lane using traffic flow models of each vehicle-type. Firstly, three traffic flow models of three different vehicle-types were developed using the data collected from each at the beginning and the ending point of the work zone. For each model, the maximum flow rate of three vehicle-types were calculated respectively. Maximum flow rate at the work zone was recalculated using passenger car equivalent value and percentage of vehicle-type. Secondly, traffic flow model using passenger car equivalent volume data was developed using the data collected from each at the beginning and the ending point of the work zone. Maximum flow rate for the work zone was calculated along. Two values of maximum flow rates through the work zone were compared and evaluated as the capacity of the work zone. This study found that the maximum flow rate of the work zone at the beginning point was less than that at the ending point because of impedance such as lane changing behaviors before entering the work zone. The capacity of two-lane freeway work zone blocking one lane was estimated 1,800pcphpl.

본 연구의 목적은 차종별 교통류 모형을 이용한 편도 2차로 고속도로 공사구간의 용량 값을 산정하는 것이다. 공사구간의 교통류 모형은 공사구간의 유입부 및 유출부를 대상으로 차종별 모형과 승용차 환산계수를 적용한 전체 차량에 대한 모형으로 도출하였다. 차종별 모형에서 산정된 최대교통류율은 승용차환산계수 및 중차량 비율을 적용하여 공사구간의 용량 값으로 전환하였다. 차종별 모형의 유입부 및 유출부 최대교통류율 값은 각각 1,845pcphpl과 1,884pcphpl로 산정되었으며 차량 전체를 대상으로 한 모형의 최대교통류율은 차종별 결과보다 높게 분석되었다. 모형의 비교 검증을 위하여 최대밀도에 따른 거리 차두간격을 적용하였다. 공사구간의 용량은 공사구간의 흐름이 안정된 유출부 용량보다 공사구간 진입을 위한 차선 변경 등으로 교통흐름이 원활하지 못한 유입부 용량에 좌우되므로 유입부 교통류 모형의 최대교통류율 값인 1,800pcphpl을 편도 2차로 고속도로 공사구간 용량 값으로 산정하였다.
