본 연구에서는 일반균형이론을 이용하여 버스전용차로의 효과분석모형을 정립하였 고, 이 모형을 이용하여 경부고속도로의 버스 전용차로에 대한 효과분석을 수행하였다. 본 연구에서 제안된 버스전용차로 효과분석모형에 있어 수요모형으로는 로짓 모형을 사용하였 고, 서비스모형, 즉 공급모형으로는 지체함 수식을 사용하였다. 이를 통하여 버스전용차로 설치에 따른 교통수단간 전환수요를 내생화 하였다. 경부고속도로를 대상으로 한 사례분석 의 결과, 버스전용차로의 효과를 극대화하는 혼잡수준이 존재한다는 것과, 버스전용차를 설 치할 경우 교통수단간의 수요전이효과에 따라 버스뿐만 아니라 일반 차로를 이용하는 승용 차의 통행여건도 개선된다는 사실을 발견하였다.

The high distribution costs causes the increasing of truck delivery time and cost, which results in reducing industrial competitiveness incre. Therefore, This study conducted research into the introduction of truck only lane for reducting distribution costs. The site of study is Keumho JCT ~ Namgumi IC of Kyeongbu Expressway which has much truck traffic because of industrial complex. Thus, this study deduced travel speed and density in each scenaria(base, bus only lane, truck only lane, two only lane). According to analysis result, if a truck only lane install, the average driving speed is 83.4km/h as a highest and density 22.47veh/km as lowest. it means that if the truck only lane is install, it will be positive influence on the expressway

This study Presents an guideline of the exclusive bus and/or truck lane on 8 lanes freeways using FREFLO model and INTEGRATiON model. Four alternatives : do nothing, bus exclusive lane, truck exclusive lane, bus and truck exclusive lane, were evaluated using average daily vehicle travel time as measures of effectiveness. It is found that bus and truck exclusive lane is the most effective alternative reducing total travel time by 7% when ADT is below 80,000 vehicle/day. However, when ADT is above 80,000 vehicle/day and bus Proportion is above 12%, bus exclusive lane is the most effective alternative reducing total travel time by more than 5.6%. It is further found that INTEGRATION, the stochastic and microscopic model, is more sensitive than FREFLO, the deterministic and macroscopic model, in evaluating the effectiveness of four alternatives.

This study estimated the changes in delays and speeds of vehicles in exclusive bus lane and road when the High Occupancy Vehicles(HOV) use the median bus lane. Synchro simulation tool was used to optimize the traffic signal time on the network and VISSIM was applied to simulate various scenarios. Here, drivers behavior parameters in VISSIM was optimized using Simultaneous Perturbation Stochastic Approximation(SPSA) algorithm in order to represent real traffic condition. Based on the simulation results, the delay in Doan daero was decreased when the volume of HOV in current condition runs on the median bus lane, whereas delay in Doan dongro was increased in all scenarios. The changes in bus speed was not sharply decreased for both study sites, even though the number of HOV increased to 10%. Thus, it could be allowed that the HOV use the median bus lane in Doan dongro and Doan daero. Future research tasks include studying about changes in delay when the HOV use the curb bus lane.

At present, Seoul City is putting the bus exclusive lane system into practice according to mass transit revitalization policy. Starting with the installation of roadside bus exclusive lane in the past, at present, even the road sections for central- lane bus exclusive lane system are on the increase. The purpose of this research is to analyze the factors giving impacts on bus accident on central bus exclusive lane and roadside bus exclusive lane. In case of the central bus exclusive lane, the 6 variables, such as the number of bus routes, number of access & entrance to central lanes patterns, whether the stop line of central lanes retreats or not, separated distance between the stop line of central lanes and crosswalks, traffic volume, and number of bus routes stopping at bus stops on reversible lanes, were found to have a significant influence on bus accidents. In case of roadside bus exclusive lane sections, the four variables such as the number of right-turn bus routes, whether to be chronic illegal parking & stopping, time for the walk signal, and forms of land use, etc. were found to have a significant influence on bus accident.

The operational purpose of exclusive bus lanes is to ease traffic congestion through the increase of person-carrying capacity on arterial roads. It is necessary to study on the route suitability for exclusive bus lanes because their operation may worsen traffic congestion due to the misuse of general purpose lane for an exclusive bus lane. This research quantifies the route suitability for exclusive bus lanes in Kwangju-city utilizing 7 indexes such as bus traffic volume, number of bus routes, traffic volume per lane, number of lane, number of intersection, number of streets, rate of curvature for the exclusive bus lane, recognizing the problem that the current installation standard of exclusive bus lanes is only limited to the bus traffic volume and the number of bus passengers. In addition, this research analyzes the operational efficiency for exclusive bus lanes, which is currently operated and their optimal operation hours.

In this paper, the dynamic hard shoulder running for bus only (HSRFBO) was presented to solve the traffic congestion by increase the capacity in chronic congested sections of highways, and a simulation was performed to evaluate the comparison with the current hard shoulder running for all vehicles(HSRFAV) and median bus only lane and HSR(MBOLHSR). According to the evaluation results, it was evaluated to be more advantageous in terms of traffic flow and safety than the current HSRFAV. In addition, the speed of passing buses is slightly reduced compared to the MBOHSR, but the speed of entering and exiting buses is increased and the speed of buses and cars is greatly improved. Therefore It was analyzed that the efficiency of transport personnel was also improved. In particular, it is expected that traffic flow will be stabilized as the difference in speed between passenger cars and buses will be greatly reduced, and violations of exclusive bus lanes by passenger cars will be greatly reduced. In addition, the operation time of HSR is greatly reduced, so that the original function of the shoulder lane can be maintained as much as possible. As a result, it was analyzed that the risk of accidents was significantly reduced when operating HSRFBO compared to when operating MBOHSR, and cross-conflicts with high accident severity did not occur.

July 1, 2004 Seoul Metropolitan city is operating the Median Bus Lane System on Gangnam Main Street, Seongsan-Susaek-ro (Road) and Dobong- Mia-ro (Road) as one of the systematic reorganizations in public transportation. It has been assumed that there was an improvement in the speed of bus considering that the Median Bus Lane System practiced on Cheonho-daero (Main Street) since 1996 have had 35km/h on the average. If the Median Bus Lane goes into effect, there is a problem with the left turn on the crossroad. The buses go on the existing first lane so that the left fuming cars cannot help but turn left on the second lane. In case that the Median Bus Lane is put into practice, the left turn on the crossroad should not be allowed. However, if the left turn is not permitted on the crossroads in the aforementioned main streets, neighboring residents will complain about it and there will be some difficulties in finding other detour. On the premise that the prevalent left turn on the crossroads is allowed while the Median Bus Lane is being put into practice, this study suggests the separation of a stop line between buses and other vehicles as a way of fuming left in a safe manner and a way to calculate the appropriate distance.

8 Exclusive Median Bus Lanes(EMBL) are operated in Seoul metropolitan city after the opening of Chon-ho section in 1996. But the changes in the road traffic demand on the direct and indirect influence area have not reported. In this paper, before and after survey and analysis of road traffic demand on 3 EMBLs opened in 2004 are conducted. In summary, the traffic demand of 3 EMBL road section decreased dramatically to 24.7% after the opening and then increased 1.4% after a year. The traffic demand of detour road decreased to 2.9% after the opening and then increased 0.3% after a year. Considering measurement error as ${\pm}5%$, Road traffic demands on the influence area of EMBL section are a stable state after one year. So it is presumed that the trip demand on EMBL section using vehicle does not make a detour around the influence area but divert into another transport modal.
