Motor vehicle related air pollution has become more serious because of rapid increase of number of cars, specially in the urban area. The increase trend seems to be accelerated, however, the fact is that road conditions, parking facilities and traffic control systems are far behind coping with this situation. In spite of the lack of related basic data, urban transportation planning (UPT) and air pollution dispersion models were applied to predict air pollution level. In standard UPT model, trip generation, distribution, modal split and network assignment were estimated by experimental equations and appropriate models. The air pollution level in the central business area was believed to be higher and it will increase continuously due to the increase of traffic demand. To meet this situation, air pollution problem should be considered as a part of integrated plannings of urban plans or transportation plans as well as more stringent motor vehicle emission standards, have to be enforced.

최근 대도시의 경우 교통정보센터 및 ITS센터 등을 통하여 도시부 신호교차로를 운영 관리하고 있으며, 천안시도 ITS 1,2,3차 사업을 통하여 2007년 교통정보센터를 설립하여, 버스정보시스템, 교통정보 수집 및 제공 시스템, 주차정보시스템, 그리고 신신호제어시스템 등을 운영하고 있다. 천안시 신호운영체계의 경우, 주요 축별로 신호기를 그룹화 하여 연동화 운영중에 있으며, 교통량에 따라 실시간으로 주기와 현시가 변동되도록 운영하고 있다. 이와 같이 도시부 Network는 교통 대응식 (TRC; Traffic Responsive Control)운영모드의 사용으로 교통지체 및 축별 속도 등의 향상을 확인하였다. 그러나 인접도시를 연결하는 지방부 지역의 경우는 정통적인 고정식 운영을 사용함으로써 신호운영효율이 낮은 것으로 확인 되었다. 이에 지방부 독립신호교차로 형태의 신호교차로의 효율성 확대를 위해 감응식 운영모드의 사용 가능성을 검토하였다. 이를 위해 천안시 교통정보센터에서 운영하고 있는 신호교차로 중 천안 외곽지역의 신호교차로를 대상으로 감응식 신호제어를 운영하여, 이를 현재 운영중인 고정식 제어와 비교해 보았다. 그 결과 현장 운영시 감응식 신호운영제어가 고정식 신호운영에 비해 지체감소 효과가 월등하였으며, 비최적화 고정식, 최적화 고정식, 비최적화 감응식, 그리고 최적화 감응식의 네가지 Case의 시뮬레이션 지체비교에서는 최적화 고정식과 비최적화 및 최적화 감응식의 지체 차이는 통계적으로 차이가 없는 것으로 판명되었다. 이는 지방 중소도시의 경우, 도시부 이외의 지방부 성격을 갖는 신호교차로에서 있어서, 교통량 조사 등과 같은 부가적 노력 없이 신호교차로를 운영할 수 있는 감응식 신호제어 운영이 보다 효과적일 것으로 판단된다.

도시의 급변하는 교통수요에 대응하기 위해서 지속적으로 교통시설을 공급하는 데에는 한계가 있으므로 맹목적인 시설공급보다는 현재 교통시설에서의 운영관리측면이 강조되고있다. 특히 신호교차로들로 이루어진 단속류에서는 연동을 고려한 각 교차로별 최적신호시간 부여가 중요하다. 그러나 방향별로 부여된 신호시간이 단속류의 통과용량에 주요 변수인 것을 감안할 때 첨두시와 같이 교통수요가 급증하는 상황에서 보호좌회전 신호를 포함하는 4현시 신호운영을 지속적으로 유지하는 것은 방향별 통과용량에서의 한계가 있으며, 이에 대응하여 기존 과포화 신호제어 방법으로 내부미터링 기법에 대한 연구도 그동안 진행되어왔으나 실시간 신호제어시스템 상의 대기행렬 검지기 설치 부재로 인해 적용되지 못하고 있는 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 도시 간선도로의 지정체를 완화하기 위한 새로운 방법으로 현재 삼성역 교차로에서 운영 중에 있는 제한적 좌회전 신호운영 방안을 간선가로축을 대상으로 적용하였다. 이것은 시간대에 따라 주방향에 대한 좌회전 흐름을 직진 후 U턴으로 유도하여 현시수를 감소시키고 직진 신호시간을 최대화하여 통과용량을 증가시키는 신호제어 방법을 적용하는 것이다. 단, 본 신호제어에 대한 적용은 대상구간의 기하구조와 교통상황 조건 등에 따라 결정되어져야 하며, 이를 위해 기존의 교통 신호등 설치기준과 같이 각 교통상황 조건별로 명확한 적용기준이 필요하다.

In the beginning of the 21s1 century, the world has been making rapid progress and changed all over the areas. Like the rest, as all domiciliary circumstances for a local development have changed, the continuous development considered environmental view has been accounted as much compared with the high growth-oriented development based on the efficiency so far. As the volume of traffic in urban community increases, the environmental load enlarges inevitably. Particularly, the excess and deficiency problems for all sorts of traffic facilities, like the shortage of parking lots continue to happen in proportion to the increase in traffic. For a design to solve these problems, introduction of the Geographic Information System; GIS applied widely over various fields become necessary. In this research, the supply-demand situation in urban areas is observed. The application of GIS for the purpose of the improvement of parking lot management technique to control effectively facilities related to parking lot in the city brings promoting the efficiency of business data inquiry, data management data correction and so on through graphic and non-graphic database for every kind of draft data, record and register data. The graphic users interface to support effective decision-making is applied for the improvement of work in this study. This research also suggests the way to utilize common database considered linkage with sub-systems related existing urban information system by developing the parking lot management system.

This paper proposes an intelligent system performing an application with assistance of an Internet of Things (IoT) platform to control a traffic lights system. In our proposed systems, the traffic lights can be remotely controlled through the Internet. Based on IoT platform, the traffic conditions at different intersections of roads are collected and the traffic lights are controlled in a central manner. For the software part, the algorithm is designed based on the green wave theory to maximize the green bandwidth of arterial roads while addressing a challenging issue: the rapid changes of parameters including cycle time, splits, offset, non-fixed vehicles' velocities and traffic flow along arterial roads. The issue typically happens at some areas where the transportation system is not well organized like in Vietnam. For the hardware part, PLC S7-1200 are placed at the intersections for two purposes: to control traffic lights and to collect the parameters and transmit to a host machine at the operation center. For the communication part, the TCP/IP protocol can be done using a Profinet port embedded in the PLC. Some graphical user interface captures are also presented to illustrate the operation of our proposed system.

현재 도로상에서의 최고속도제한은 교통 혼잡이나 기상변화에 대처하기 힘들기 때문에 교통사고를 유발하는 요인이 될 수 있다. 물론 도로교통법에 따르면 악천후 시 20~50% 속도를 감속시켜야 하지만 운전자들의 판단에 맡겨야 하는 어려움이 있고, 감속하는 차량과 하지 않는 차량들간의 상대속도가 달라져서 주행환경과 안전에 큰 영향을 끼친다. 따라서 가변속도제어는 도로상의 운전자들에게 적절한 최고속도제한을 지정해 줌으로서 운전자들이 악천후 시에 감속된 속도로 달리게 하여 사고를 미연에 방지하거나 사고피해 심각도를 낮출 수 있을 거라 예상된다. 본 연구의 목적은 교통사고가 잦은 부산광역시의 연속류(도시고속도로)를 중심으로 적절한 구간에서 가변속도제어가 실시될 수 있도록 교통사고의 특성을 분석하여 사고 심각도를 조사하였다. 그리고 도시고속도로의 기하구조상 많은 곡선부 환경을 가지고 있으므로 평면 곡선부 지점을 건조한 노면과 젖은 노면을 비교 시뮬레이션 해봄으로써 비에 젖은 노면일수록 속도에 따른 사고위험이 크다는 결과를 얻었다. 이러한 결과를 토대로 먼저 도시고속도로에서 기본구간, 터널부근, 램프부근, 요금소 부근, 진 출입부 등 다양한 요인을 고려한 뒤 속도감소가 필요한 구간에서 우선 실시하여 운전자들의 참여의식과 필요성을 인식시키고 향후 도시고속도로 전 구간에 설치 및 운영이 확대되어야 할 것으로 판단된다.

This paper presents a practical guidence for determining an optimal traffic control system at intersections in the urban areas in Korea. Two alternative systems, unsignalized and signalized, are considered. For analyzing the unsignalized system, two kinds of simulation model are developed ; gap acceptance model and first -in -first - out model. For the signalized system the total delay function for general arrival distribution is developed under the assumption that departure time is constant and it is used to find an optimal cycle time. Finally, the results in these two alternative systems are compared under the minimum average delay criterion and an optimal traffic control system is determined. This approach supports the decision making whether to install a traffic signal system in an intersection with given traffic flows and, if installed, determines what is the optimal cycle time and how the traffic signal phases are divided. And it also gives upper bounds of traffic flows to be passed in the unsignalized and the signalized system, which can be effectively used whenever an intersection is designed.

Traffic signal control problems in urban street networks are formulated in two ways. In the formulations network flows are assumed to satisfy the user route choice criterion. the first formulation which is called implicit substiuation incorporates user route behavior implicitly in the objective function by recognizing the dependence of the link flows on the signal variables. On the other hands, the second one which is called 'penalty formulation' consists in expressing the route choice conditions in the form of a single nonlinear constraint. Approximate solution algorithm for each of the formulations was investigated in detail and computer codes were written to examine key aspects of each algorithm. A test was done on a network which is small in size but sufficiently complex in representing real-world traffic conditions and the test result shows that both algorithms produce converged solutions. It is recommended, however, that further studies should be done in order to compare the performance of each algorithm more in depth.

Traffic represents one of the largest sources of primary air pollutants in urban area. As a consequence, numerous abatement strategies are being pursued to decrease the ambient concentration of pollutants. A characteristics of most of the these strategies is a requirement for accurate data on both the quantity and spatial distribution of emissions to air in the form of an atmospheric emission inventory database. In the case of traffic pollution, such an inventory must be compiled using activity statistics and emission factors for vehicle types. The majority of inventories are compiled using passive data from either surveys or transportation models and by their very nature tend to be out-of-date by the time they are compiled. The study of current trends is towards integrating urban traffic control systems and assessments of the environmental effects of motor vehicles. In this study, a model of vehicle emission calculation by using real-time traffic data was studied. Traffic data, which are required on a street-by-street basis, is obtained from induction loops of traffic control system. It is possible that characteristics of hourly air pollutants emission rates is obtained from hourly traffic volume and speed. An emission rates model is allocated with a high resolution space by using geographic information system (GIS). Vehicle emission model was developed with a high resolution spatial, gridded and hourly emission rates.

Freeway Corridors consist of urban freeways and parallel arterials that drivers can use alternatively. Ramp metering in freeways and signal control in arterials are contemporary traffic control methods that have been developed and applied in order to improve traffic conditions of freeway corridors. However, most of the existing studies have focused on either optimal ramp metering in freeways, or progression signal strategies between arterial intersections. There have been no traffic control systems in Korea that integrates the freeway ramp metering and arterial signal control. The effective control strategies for freeway operations may cause negative effects on arterial traffic. On the other hand, traffic congestion and bottleneck phenomenon of arterials due to the increasing peak-hour travel demand and ineffective signal operation may generate an accessibility problem to freeway ramps. Thus, the main function of the freeway which is the through-traffic process has not been successful. The purpose of this study is to develop an integrated control model that connects freeway ramp metering systems and signal control systems in arterial intersections. And Optimization of integrated control model which consists of ramp metering and signal control is another purpose. Optimization results are verified by comparison with the results from MATDYMO.
