Capacity analysis at intersections: Case study in Ponte Nova-MG

By Higino Matos, Sérgio Pacífico, Lucas Maciel de Aguiar

This work proposes a reflection on the reasons why this intersection receives a high volume of traffic and proposes a technically viable solution to the problem in the short and medium term. To do this, it was necessary to evaluate the traffic light cycle of the main intersection and its surroundings, find out the flow rates of the main intersection and its surroundings, and propose alternatives to reduce density and travel time. The work revealed the need for actions involving partnerships between managers and the local community, as everyone is responsible for the safety of individuals in their surroundings.
