Abstract:
Intersection of H.E.A. Mokodompit Street – M.T. Haryono – H.A. Nasution is one of the signalized intersections in Kendari City which has congestion problems, vehicle accumulation and vehicle queues at each arm of the intersection at rush hour due to the large volume of traffic flow and not optimal cycle timing from the traffic light signal. The purpose of this study is to optimize the cycle time of traffic control light signals based on traffic volume and to analyze the performance of these intersections.
The results of the analysis based on the volume of traffic flow obtained the optimal cycle time of 72 seconds with the division of green time in each approach by 18 seconds for the north approach, 14 seconds for the eastern approach and 28 seconds for the south approach.
The degree of saturation at each intersection arm is 0.82 which is at the service level D.
