Axiom traffic group leading various strategic projects by insisting on the definition of transportation planning which is defined as planning required in the operation, provision and management of facilities and services for the modes of transport to achieve safer, faster, comfortable, convenient, economical and environment-friendly movement of people and goods, hope to make an effective role in gulf area.
Standard forms were prepared and the cons and pros were evaluated for different options of shipping line services.
In this project, 13 main highways were investigated. For this study, online simulation was adopted, the real time traffic data and changes in traffic flow were combined in order to predict the rate of traffic increase. The project goal was to assess highway capacity and develop efficient traffic management strategy for the urban road network.
The east-west Shahran-Damavand corridor connects Sadr-Niyayesh tunnel and Sadr multi-level bridge in North of Tehran. The highway carries high volume of traffic. A highway management programme was needed to monitor and control the vehicle congestion, and to improve the road safety. This project was awarded to review the existing condition and investigate possible traffic management solutions for this highway using traffic simulation modelling.
Hemmat Highway corridor was designed and completed to connect Yasini Highway in the east to Kharazi highway in the west. Hemmat corridor is about 41km long connecting Damavand to Karaj. This highway carries probably the highest traffic volumes compared with other highways. The most critical area along this highway which causes heavy traffic jam is the entry ramp from Modares Highway mainly due to the variation in carriageway width. It was decided to carry out a study of this highway and try to find practical solutions for efficient traffic management.
To improve heavy traffic along existing Hemmat and Sadr highways, a new east-west corridor above Sadr highway was planned. This corridor consisted of a bridge over and along Sadr highway from the east to Niyayesh highway and a 11km tunnel under the densely populated part of Tehran. A traffic impact study was required to assess the impact of this new corridor on the overall Tehran highway network. The main purpose of this study was to assess the level of impact, develop practical solutions to improve congestions and delays and to gauge the level of improvements that this corridor would contribute to the overall highway network.
The taxi authority recognized a taxi regulation study in Tehran. Transportation and Traffic Organization of Tehran Municipality appointed the consultant to conduct this study.
Calibration of Simulation Software Based on Driver’s Behavior in Tehran, Iran
Walking facilities including pavements, walkways, stairways, crosswalks, signalized intersection crossings and signalized intersection crossings in five different locations were recorded on video. Pedestrian trajectories and the required data were extracted from simulation models, and then pedestrian speed and acceleration were calculated. The social force model available in most of simulation software was used to model the pedestrian movements for Tehran pedestrian facilities and conditions.
