Vessel traffic volume and vessel traffic service (VTS) operator workloads are increasing with the expansion of global maritime trade, contributing to marine accidents by causing difficulties in providing timely services. Therefore, it is essential to have sufficient VTS operators considering the vessel traffic volume and near-miss cases. However, no quantitative method for determining the optimal number of workstations, which is necessary for calculating the VTS operator staffing level, has yet been proposed. This paper proposes a new, microscopic approach for calculating the number of workstations from vessel trajectories and voice recording communication data between VTS operators and navigators. The vessel trajectory data are preprocessed to interpolate different intervals. The proposed method consists of three modules: Information services, navigational assistance services, and traffic organization service. The developed model was applied to the Yeosu VTS in Korea. Another workstation should be added to the current workstation based on the proposed method. The results showed that even without annual statistical data, a reasonable VTS operator staffing level could be calculated. The proposed approach helps prevent vessel accidents by providing timely services even if the vessel traffic is congested if VTS operators are deployed to a sufficient number of workstations.

Attention to the most vulnerable road users has grown rapidly over recent decades. The experience gained reveals an important number of fatalities due to accidents in urban branch roads. In this study, an analytical methodology for the calculation of urban branch road safety is proposed. The proposal relies on data collected during road safety inspections; therefore, it can be implemented even when historical data about traffic volume or accidents are not available. It permits us to identify geometric, physical, functional, and transport-related defects, and elements which are causal factors of road accidents, in order to assess the risk of death or serious injuries for users. Traffic volume, average speed, and expected consequences on vulnerable road users in case of an accident allow us to calculate both the level of danger of each homogeneous section which composes the road, and the hazard index of the overall branch. A case study is presented to implement the proposed methodology. The strategy proposed by the authors could have a significant impact on the risk management of urban roads, and could be used in decision-making processes to design safer roads and improve the safety of existing roads.

The more rapid development of a region will also be followed by the increasing volume of traffic that occurs. With the operation of Sunrise Mall in the city of Mojokerto will bring a change in the increase in traffic volume. The purpose of this study was to determine the magnitude of the generation that occurred due to the opening of Sunrise Mall in the city of Mojokerto. Knowing the traffic performance around Sunrise Mall in the city of Mojokerto in the existing condition which only reviews Degrees of Saturation. Knowing the impact of traffic caused by the operation of Sunrise Mall in the city of Mojokerto. Know the alternatives that can be used to improve intersection, braid and road performance around Sunrise Mall in Mojokerto city and to find out the parking capacity and Parking Space Unit needed at Sunrise Mall in Mojokerto city. Secondary data collection in research includes geometric data on roads, data on traffic volume and intersections, data in and out of the Sunrise Mall building, data on Sunrise Mall characteristics and building area. Results showed that there was an influence of the construction of a new shopping center on traffic performance in the case study of Sunrise Mall Benteng Pancasila Mojokerto Street.

Road traffic junctions are potential locations for accidents especially when they are not provided with signal and completely uncontrolled. In the present paper, a T-junction located near Maisammaguda was identified as the study location. It was an uncontrolled road traffic junction with many conflicts and congestion, reducing the safety of students, faculty and other commuters. Near about ten professional colleges are located in this area, with heavy traffic flow during morning and evening peak hours. Traffic volume count was made as per IRC guidelines and signal timings were designed for the proposed signalized T Junction. Detailed phasing and timing plans were also arrived at separately for morning and evening peak hours. It is believed that the proposal if implemented will significantly reduce the number and severity of accidents at this location.

Due to imbalance of road capacity and traffic volume, so traffic congestion will be occurred either along the road and intersection. Demak Ijo intersection is one of signalized junction located in the western part of Yogyakarta with high traffic volume so traffic congestion is frequently occurred. The aim of this study is to analyze the performance of existing traffic condition and then estimate the congestion cost at signalized intersection by modeling (simulation) using Vissim 9. The analysis results show that existing traffic condition is in very bad condition (level F), average delay of 80 seconds, average queue length of 48.73 meters with congestion cost is about Rp. 2,830,336 per hour.

Nodes importance evaluation is the element of transportation network planning. From the aspects of society and economy, highway traffic volume, traffic location, an evaluation system on nodes importance and traffic location of Highway Transportation Junction is established. For the accuracy of evaluation, Fuzzy-AHP is applied to calculate weight of each indicator as fuzziness is existed when factors are compared mutually. Besides, case study is made in Shandong Province, results demonstrate that it is scientific and feasible for planning of highway transportation hubs.

The effect of the development of an infrastructure such as shopping centers, settlements, and so on is one study that is generally considered in the governance of a region. Typically, this construction has a major traffic impact. Combined with the effects of population growth, which is constantly growing every year, the flow of traffic is increasingly congested. This is because many of these people choose to own personal vehicles. Tremendous congestion would result from a road capacity that is not proportional to vehicle growth. A traffic analysis was conducted using road traffic volume data to prevent this. This research will attempt to survey a road on National road KM 41 Kamal and use the neuro fuzzy method to forecast traffic volume. The amount of traffic that will be studied is only motorcycles. The results show that with an error percentage of 16.0793%, neuro fuzzy can predict motorcycle traffic volume. It can be inferred from this that Neuro Fuzzy can forecast traffic volume on a road quite well.
