ANALYSIS OF REDUCTION IN PEDESTRIAN WAITING TIME FOR CROSSING ROUNDABOUT
Journal Title: International Journal of Civil Engineering and Technology - Year 2019, Vol 10, Issue 3
Abstract
The purpose of this study is to minimize pedestrian waiting time to cross the roundabout. This study employed an analytical hierarchy process for crossing points at the roundabout. AHP decision making of level 1-3 micro-alternatives and its ranking is represented in the hierarchical structure. The prime objective of producing a combination of solutions ultimately reduces wait time <6 secs, as long waiting time is a persisting issue. Combination of fractional solutions regarding fuzzy weights, represents reliability, efficiency, economy, traffic literacy, optimality, and waitingtime thinning. This result to maximize the user performance on the crossing site. Spiderweb represents commendable solutions obliged to the pedestrian crossing. Microscopic evaluation and time thinning factor also save budget, time and serves ease in crossing recommendations. Improved Pedestrian crossing and thinning wait time appear in higher fuzzy weights. There are different parameters and its combination, FHI is an uneconomical and efficient solution serves 99% pedestrian crossing. Before microscopic evaluation in user preference survey, the parameters combination, namely, CBAI and FHI recorded the highest and lowest performer respectively. After microscopic evaluation in terms of Fuzzy weights of properties, recorded that FHI and ADBI were highest and lowest performers respectively. The fractional solutions workable as per the pedestrian’s activities in terms of trip length at the roundabout, thus accuracy works up to the single pedestrian cross-ability and maximum to any number. The present research provides an all-inclusive approach to reduce the pedestrian waiting and crossing problems at the roundabout.
