Abstract
Two-Way Stop-Controlled (TWSC) intersections are used widely. Capacity of vehicular traffic streams at TWSC intersections has been studied. This paper provides an improved procedure or model for determining TWSC intersection capacity based on traffic conflicts, for intersections with shared lanes and flared entries. The developed model was calibrated for conditions in China and can also assess the influence of non-motorized road users. The model results suggest that impact of non-motorized users on capacity of vehicular traffic can be appreciable.
