Humanized efficient pedestrian crossing facility and control method thereof

Abstract

The invention discloses a humanized efficient pedestrian crossing facility and a control method thereof. The pedestrian crossing facility is arranged at a crossing and comprises a pedestrian crossing, a central safety island, an isolation belt, lane traffic lights and pedestrian traffic lights; the isolation belt is arranged in the middle of a two-way driving lane; the pedestrian crossing is arranged at the intersection of the two-way driving lane; the central safety island is positioned in the middle of the pedestrian crossing and divides the pedestrian crossing into two sections; the lane traffic lights and the pedestrian traffic lights are unidirectionally controlled; a corner safety island is arranged at each of four corners of the crossing. The utilization rate of a road is increased by matching the pedestrian traffic lights and the lane traffic lights and respective control on pedestrian twice crossing and traffic flow in different directions, the pedestrian waiting time is also reduced, the pedestrian-vehicle conflict is solved due to the corner safety islands, the integral passing efficiency of pedestrians and vehicles is greatly improved, and the humanized efficient pedestrian crossing facility and the control method thereof have ecological benefits, social benefits and economic benefits.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of road traffic, in particular to a humanized and efficient pedestrian crossing facility and a control method thereof. Background technique [0002] With the concept of people-oriented sustainable development deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, pedestrian traffic, as an important part of urban traffic, has gradually received attention. Pedestrian crossing facilities are an important link connecting the entire pedestrian system, an important channel for pedestrians to cross the road, and the main area where pedestrians and motor vehicles conflict. In recent years, with the rapid growth of the number of motor vehicles in my country's large cities, traffic problems have become more and more prominent, and the contradiction between pedestrians and motor vehicles has become prominent, and the unique phenomenon of "Chinese-style crossing the road" has appeared. Crossing the road often ignores the existence of traffic...
