Abstract:The electrification reconstruction of the Xiantong Railway makes the increase of transportation capacity, but leads to low transport efficiency of Chaoyang Road I intersected with the railway at grade. It is urgent to optimize the intersection of Chaoyang Road I and the Xiantong Railway. The traffic volume at the intersection before the reconstruction is obtained by the survey analysis, Trans CAD and four-stage calculation method to predict the traffic volume and service level within 15 a after its opening to traffic. Comprehensively considering the factors such as engineering quantity and traffic organization, the railway at-grade-to-grade-separation crossing method, road planar section form, bridge culvert forms and investment are analyzed. The results show that the one-way traffic volume of Chaoyang Road I has reached 544 pcu/h, the traffic volume of this road will increase by 33.3% in 2030, and the service level will be Level 4. Therefore, the two-way four-lane design is adopted. The scheme of at-grade-to-grade-separation frame bridge crossing railway, 32.5 m two-way four-lane road and three-span continuous frame bridge culvert is adopted able to solve the problems such as dense buildings and limited space, which can meet the requirements of complete functionality, narrow red line width and small investment. The research results can provide reference and inspiration for the design of similar urban road and railway intersections.
