Use of modern traffic signal coordination has now been proved by its performance to reduce the total delay, increase driving speed and provide the smoothness of driving significantly. To provide more possibility of success in any traffic development including traffic signal coordination, traffic analytical and modelling software packages are now the best answer. This thesis illustrates the practical using of aaSIDRA and PARAMICS in development of traffic signal coordination on Sri-Jan Road, Khon Kaen City Thailand. The fixed-time signal plan with bandwidth maximization strategy is selected for the studied corridor. Two essential steps in the development are: determination of signal plans and cycle times using Version 2.1 aaSIDRA Micro-analytical software package; and determination of coordination offsets by using Version 5.1 PARAMICS Micro-simulation software package. The PARAMICS is also using in the evaluation of actual and improved traffic condition on Sri-Jan corridor. The results show that the newly proper signal plans and offsets produces significant improvements on the traffic conditions of the Sri-Jan Road. Recommendations on the motorcycle impacts and the projection of future traffic condition have also been provided for further study. / Thesis (MTransportSysEngineering)--University of South Australia, 2006.
