Using traffic signal control to better serve pedestrians and limit speeding on urban arterials: adaptive walk intervals and speeding opportunities.
Safe and efficient multimodal transportation system is a priority for many agencies around the world. Traffic signals, in practice, are commonly applied to regulate conflicts, increase capacity, and decrease vehicular delay, with little or no attention given to speed control and pedestrian delay.

| Summary: | Safe and efficient multimodal transportation system is a priority for many agencies around the world. Traffic signals, in practice, are commonly applied to regulate conflicts, increase capacity, and decrease vehicular delay, with little or no attention given to speed control and pedestrian delay. The dissertation investigates two broad subjects, using traffic signal to improve pedestrian service and to control speed on urban roads. These subjects are presented in the dissertation in three separate research. |
