description | Computer simulation can be of high importance to analysis geometry regarding the signalized roundabouts and intersections that are related to systems of urban streets. The major goal of the presented research is analyzing geometry as well as the intersection classification that is related to traffic flow, as well as enhancing the capacity related to intersections for road networks, also relieving city’s congestions. Data on number of vehicles passing through Mudaffar roundabout have been recorded through the author of the presented study from seven in the morning to three after noon for 4 days. Sidra software was adopted to analyzed the data. The results have indicated that the level of service (LOS) regarding the present conditions in the discussed roundabout has been F, and with average delay (303.6 sec/veh). There are two proposals will be used to the developing of the roundabout. The best results indicated that the LOS for present condition of Mudaffar roundabout is C with (26.4 sec/veh) of average delay. |
