Traffic flows on urban roads and their impact on public transport users

Abstract

This article analyzes the formation and development of urban traffic flows and their impact on public transport users. Currently, the increase in population, urban expansion, and the growing number of vehicles have intensified traffic congestion on city roads. This situation negatively affects public transport operations, causing time losses for passengers, a decrease in comfort levels, and adverse environmental impacts. During the study, urban traffic flows were analyzed under real city conditions, and the factors affecting the efficiency of public transportation were identified. The article proposes solutions such as reducing congestion through the use of modern transport models, prioritizing public transport, and improving passenger convenience. According to the results, measures such as allocating dedicated lanes for public transport, implementing intelligent traffic light control systems, and forecasting passenger flow in advance are of significant importance. In conclusion, effective management of urban traffic flows ensures a convenient and stable transport experience for public transport users.
