Abstract

Keywords: intersection, roundabout, safety, performance, capacity.

In this paper we presented the vehicle-pedestrian conflicts at signalized intersection and at single-lane roundabouts. In the second case, pedestrians face two conflicting vehicular movements on each approach, namely there are conflicts with the entering vehicles and other conflicts with the exiting vehicles. Also, we presented the bicycle conflicts and the general types of conflicts that occur in roundabouts. We finally stated the information access for blind or visually impaired pedestrians and presented solutions for them.
