ANALYZING CAPACITY AND LEVEL OF SERVICE OF UNSIGNALIZED ROUNDABOUT

Abstract: Numbers of vehicle on road increases with respect to income and population, Because of this the traffic increase, and traffic analysis and planning has became essential. Traffic planning acts as nervous system of city. Better the traffic planning, greater will be the city development as well as lesser will be the traffic problems. This paper examines the use of Indo HCM 2017 in operational estimation of capacity and level of service of roundabout using field entry flow and circulatory flow. This analysis can be empirical and analytical. The estimated entry capacity and field flows were found to be higher compare to HCM estimates. This analysis tries to estimate the entry capacity of a roundabout based on the traffic flow conditions on roundabout and driver’s behaviour depicted by the gaps being accepted or rejected while trying to enter circulating Flow. This also estimates the traffic flow in the measurements of vehicle per hour and PCU per hour. Observations says that entry Speed of the vehicle is lower when it enter in the roundabout, causing queues and it will directly increase fuel demand same environmental pollution, which can be a great loss to city.

Keywords: The estimation, circulatory flow, roundabout, Observations.etc.
