Assessment Of Delhi Ncr Traffic Using Queuing Model

Abstract

Traffic congestion due to the increasing number of vehicles on the road is the prime concern of most of the Indian cities. Higher fuel consumption and generation of unburned hydrocarbons in surrounding necessitates the demand for the appropriate study of traffic movement to minimise the traffic hazards. In this study, the queuing based analytical method is used to analyse the vehicular traffic flow. As the aggregated model have a trivial resolution, M/M/1 queuing model is used to study the traffic approaching Dhaula Kuan intersection for arrival and waiting time to identify the spatial and temporal effects of traffic under various sessions for the day. The methodology adopted reveals the significant factors, causing traffic congestion and will also apply to the broad scenario for determining the traffic flow pattern.
