Özet

Traffic lights have an important role in the control of traffic flow as one of the key components at intersections. Delays occurring at signalized intersections significantly affect travel time Coordinating intersections is one of the most effective ways to achieve a steady flow of traffic. By means of illuminated and signal-coordinated intersections, the delay time, queue length, and travel time of vehicles moving on arterial roads may be significantly reduced. Autonomous vehicles developed within the scope of today's technology have now become a part of transportation systems. This paper evaluates the effectiveness of autonomous vehicle systems to minimize delays at intersections.
