38 STUDY OBJECTIVES Evaluation of pedestrian/vehicular delay and queue lengths for different scenarios to analyse the requirement of pedestrian facilities for safe crossing of pedestrians

39 Simulation Model Development

40 NEED FOR SIMULATION The micro-simulation models not only build confidence in the proposal but also: Model vehicular/pedestrian conflict realistically for accessing impact of various scenarios on delay/queue lengths to evaluate guidelines as per IRC Models vehicular and pedestrian behaviour accurately with scientifically calibrated models Provides credibility on the estimated delays and queues, considering various dynamic factors such as arrival rates, speeds/accelerations/ Helps model scenarios such as violations and assessment of Intelligent transport systems efficacy such as push button signals. Software Used: PTV VISSIM is a microscopic, time step and behavior based simulation model and it is the most powerful tool available for simulating multi-modal traffic flows, including cars, trucks, buses, heavy rail, trams, LRT, bicyclists and pedestrians.

41 SIMULATION METHODOLOGY Geometric Data (Road Network) Data Collection and Compilation Data Processing & Analysis Traffic/Pedestrian Data (Volumes, Composition) Network Setup in VISSIM (Simulation Software) Use calibrated parameters Calibration and Validation of the Simulation Model for peak hour Evaluation and comparison of Proposed Models Observations and Inferences AM Peak Controlled and Uncontrolled Scenario year 2016 AM Peak Controlled Scenario and violations year 2021 Capacity Analysis with grade separated options

42 MODEL INPUT PARAMETERS Parameters Warm up period of 900secs Driver Behavior Conflict areas Reduced speed area Give way coding Lateral gap Vehicle speed Lane changing distance Gap Acceptance Model Inputs Vehicular Volume Input Pedestrian Volume Input Signal timings Vehicle /Pedestrian classification and related properties Evaluations Base Model Proposed Scenario

43 SIMULATION GLOBAL PARAMETERS The simulation model is set to simulate 15 Minutes + 1 Hour of which first 15 minutes are modelled as buffer time for the build of the simulation model and last 1 hour is the peak hour. All observations were taken 3600 simulation seconds of the peak hour operations. As all micro-simulation models are stochastic in nature, there is a degree of randomness associated with all distributions. The random seed parameter controls the random number generator in the simulation. Simulation runs with identical input files and random seeds generate identical results. A micro-simulation model must therefore be run with different random seed values to average the stochastic variations in the model. The model runs with five different random seed values, from which the results are taken and averaged before presentation.

44 ASSUMPTIONS Pedestrian speed -1.2 m/sec (as per IRC ) Pedestrian Peak Composition : 60% Men, 30% Women, 10% Child Effects of pedestrian grouping, gap acceptance response to approaching vehicle, pedestrian crossing speed variations, compliance to signals For all scenarios with signalized crossing for pedestrians, the green time is kept at 20 seconds for pedestrians phase as per IRC guidelines

45 NETWORK SETUP Data Processing & Analysis Links And Connectors (Road Network) Vehicle Types with acceleration and desired speed curves Calibrated driving/pedestrian behavior parameters Calibrated driving behavior parameters are taken from the consultants previous simulation work. References our given at the end of the presentation

46 AVERAGE TRAFFIC COMPOSITION (BARAPULLAH DOWNSTREAM) Traffic Composition Desired Speed range Vehicle type Mean Desired Speed Range Car 65 Km/Hr Km/hr Two Wheeler 45 Km/Hr Km/hr

47 LITERATURE REVIEW CRITICAL GAP Min. Gap Acceptance Time: The vehicle/pedestrian must wait at red bar if the current time gap is less than the value which has been entered. Average gap accepted by the pedestrians : 5.02 s to 7.19 s based on gender and 4.73 s to 7.76 s based on age. Priority rules are used in Vissim to model gap acceptance behaviour

48 Uncontrolled Crossing Scenario with No Signals EVALUATION CRITERIA UNCONTROLLED CROSSING As per IRC , for providing controlled crossing following criteria needs to be evaluated: Peak Hour volume of pedestrians(p) and Vehicles(V) : PV 2 >2x10 8 Speed of approaching vehicles is more than 65kph Waiting time for pedestrians/vehicles becomes too long (evaluated using simulation) Accident data indicating more than 5 accidents per year due to vehicle collision Table below indicate the level of service limits as per IRC

49 EVALUATION CRITERIA FOR CONTROLLED CROSSING Controlled Crossing Scenario with No Signals As per IRC High pedestrians/vehicular volume increase cycle time beyond 120 seconds (Evaluated using Micro simulation) Vehicular traffic demands uninterrupted flow At-grade crossing fails to mitigation problems related to accident.

50 DELAY AND QUEUE MEASUREMENT SECTIONS Queue counter locations Queue Counter

51 TERMINOLOGY Vehicle delay: Average delay of all vehicles/pedestrians The delay of a vehicle in leaving a travel time measurement is obtained by subtracting the theoretical (ideal) travel time from the actual travel time. Average/Maximum queue length

52 Observations Base Year 2016 AM Peak Uncontrolled Scenario

53 AM PEAK UNCONTROLLED SCENARIO MODEL SNAPSHOT Model evaluated for 3 gap acceptance levels, of 4 seconds, 5.5 seconds and 7 seconds, with 4 seconds representing most aggressive pedestrian behaviour No Signals

54 AM PEAK UNCONTROLLED SCENARIO ESTIMATED DELAY

55 AM Peak Uncontrolled Scenario Estimated Delay Observations Average Vehicular delay for all critical gap acceptance value is more than 95 seconds, with maximum estimated average delay of 111 seconds for critical gap acceptance value of 4 seconds. For pedestrian movement average delay at critical gap values of 4 seconds, 5.5 seconds, 7 seconds, are 24 seconds, 26 seconds and 48 seconds respectively, for the movement from NBCC Complex to Metro station and 24 seconds, 26 seconds and 39 seconds respectively, for the movement from Metro station to NBCC Complex, indicating level of service C-D Maximum pedestrian delay are estimated at 87 seconds for NBCC Complex to metro station movement and 70 seconds for Metro Station to NBCC Complex movement

56 AM Peak Uncontrolled Scenario Percentile Delay Values For gap acceptance of 4 seconds and 5.5 seconds, 90% of the delay values are less than 43 sec and 42 sec. For gap acceptance of 7 seconds, only 50% of the delay values are fit in the range for LOS C for the movement for the side.

64 Comparison of Uncontrolled & Controlled Scenarios Base year 2016

65 Comparing Average Queue Lengths for Vehicles Average queue lengths with uncontrolled scenario are very high as compared with controlled scenario It is recommended to evaluate only controlled scenarios for horizon years

66 Comparing Average Delay Average delay for pedestrians is similar in both scenarios, but for vehicles average delay reduces significantly in the controlled scenario Further, recommended to evaluate only controlled scenarios for horizon years

67 Observations Horizon Year 2021 AM Peak Controlled Scenario

68 AM Peak Controlled Scenario Year 2021 Model evaluated for cycle time 90 seconds and 120 seconds With Signals and Barapullah Downstream Volume 3679 PCU s

69 Controlled AM Peak Horizon Year 2021 Estimated Delays The graph above shows the average and maximum estimated delay for both pedestrian movement and vehicular movement for the controlled scenario

70 AM Peak Controlled Scenario Estimated Delays Observations With cycle time of 90 seconds the average estimated delay for vehicular movement is 86 seconds, which reduces to 37 seconds with cycle time of 120 seconds. Maximum delay is estimated at 142 seconds for vehicular traffic with cycle time 90 seconds For pedestrian movement, the average delay is highest with value of 42 seconds with cycle time of 120 seconds, which indicate level of service C-D.

71 Controlled AM Peak Estimated Queue Length Average estimated queue lengths are 175m & 60m with cycle time of 90 seconds & 120 sec. Recommended to have a cycle time of 120 seconds, with 20 seconds pedestrians phase,

72 Observations Horizon Year 2021 AM Peak Violations Scenario

73 Estimated Delay Controlled AM Peak Cycle time : 120 seconds It is observed with cycle time 120 seconds, that as violations increase the average delay for vehicles increase, at level of 20% average estimated delay is 70 seconds which is 30 seconds higher if no violations are observed.

74 Observations Horizon Year Capacity Analysis

75 OBSERVATIONS WITH CONTROLLED SCENARIO Need for grade separated option for the horizon years Cycle time of 120 seconds is used. Year Estimated Downstream Volumes Veh/Hr (PCUS) Average queue length(m) Average Maximum Queue Length(m) (3442) (3615) (3795) (3975) (4695) (4930) The road capacity of the section is estimated near 3800 PCU/Hour with cycle time 120 seconds In 2024, estimated volumes near capacity and the average queue lengths are estimated at 184m which indicate the controlled scenario is no more suitable atgrade pedestrian controlled crossing as higher green phase would be required for vehicles

76 OBSERVATIONS WITH CONTROLLED SCENARIO Need for grade separated option for the horizon years Cycle time of 150 seconds is used. Year Estimated Downstream Volumes PCU S and (Veh/Hr) Average queue length(m) Average Maximum Queue Length(m) (3442) (3615) (3795) (3975) (4695) (4930)

77 CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS Control Type Year 2016 Traffic (Level of service (LOS)) Year 2021 Traffic (Level of service (LOS)) Year 2024 and Beyond Uncontrolled Pedestrian LOS : C Vehicle LOS: Poor - - Controlled Cycle time 90 seconds Pedestrians: LOS B Vehicles LOS : Good Recommended Option Pedestrians: LOS C-D Vehicles LOS: Poor LOS very Poor Vehicular Traffic Cycle Time 120 Seconds Pedestrians: LOS B Vehicles LOS : Poor Pedestrians: LOS C-D Vehicles LOS: Good Recommended Option LOS very Poor Vehicular Traffic Grade Separated - - Recommended Option

78 CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS Uncontrolled crossing is not recommended due to high vehicular delays available Violations by pedestrians have significant effect on the delay for the vehicular traffic Controlled crossing is required for providing better LOS for upstream volumes more than 2400 PCU/hr on BBSB setu In this case, while proposing signals, the queue length for vehicles needs to be considered as it may extend on the main carriageway of Aurbindo marg Continuous increase in queue length on BBSB setu (downstream traffic) for Horizon years. Need for grade separated pedestrian facility after Horizon year 2024

79 PEDESTRIAN VULNERABILITY As per IRC code IRC , to qualify as a grade separated pedestrian crossing facility, a location should have: Where, P = Peak hour pedestrian flow and V = Peak hour vehicular volume The value of PV 2 /10 8 higher than or equals to 2 for any location indicates high conflict between pedestrian across movement and flow of traffic. Thus, need for a grade separated pedestrian facility.
