Abstract
This case study consists in the evaluation of the Kaunas city traffic speed taking into consideration
that traffic lights were coordinated. Kaunas suffers from high traffic intensity
and, as a consequence, traffic jams often, and happens mainly because the city can only
be crossed by the center.
Lithuania, as the rest of Europe experienced a big growth, from 1995 to 2005 coinciding
with the crisis, that is to say that number of cars increased to highest levels as well as the
traffic intensity. Moreover, by comfortability has to be borne in mind that a lot of people
prefer to drive by car since takes much less time to get to a place and in cold winters
don’t have to reach any bus stop nor waiting for the bus. The city was not ready for such
an amount of cars thus generating traffic jams.
So that, the aim and main goal of the project is to evaluate one way of clearing the
streets and letting the vehicles run faster, which is would be to evaluate its actual theoretical
traffic speed, comparing it to experimental ones and calculate it again assuming
all traffic lights coordinated. This will allow to see how necessary is the coordination as
well as other conclusions regarding objects in infrastructure.
