A Model for Identifying Road Risk Class
Abstrak
In many road safety, traffic management, and travel planning analyses, it is useful to classify road sections according to risk level. Such classification is labour-intensive and needs to be reviewed periodically. The authors propose a model for identifying a discrete risk class for road sections based on selected traffic flow parameters, which are available in most measurement systems monitoring current traffic conditions. The Surrogate Safety Measures approach was applied in the model formulated using Principal Components Analysis. As input to the model SSMs are used in the form of a set of hourly average traffic flow parameters. The SSMs used are: the percentage of light vehicles exceeding the speed limit by a value in the range 21 to 30 km/h; the percentage of light vehicles exceeding the speed limit by more than 30 km/h; the traffic volume of light vehicles; the traffic volume of heavy vehicles and the mean speeds of light vehicles and heavy vehicles.
