Abstract
Intersection signal's phase time is calculated and determined by car and pedestrian traffic volume. If signal phase time and traffic volume dis-matched, cars and pedestrians have much delay time. This paper suggested an All-Red phase application method that cars and pedestrians securing safety and minimizing traffic signal waiting time. The key solution of this suggested method is determining All-Red phase operation by using sum of spare green time that have no passing cars. That is, total time of spare green time that have no passing cars is longer than All-Red phase time, operating All-Red phase has an effect. And case study carried out at the signalized intersection, revealed that this suggested method has much effectiveness.
