Abstract:In response to the challenges in the reconstruction of interchanges that undertake the key traffic transfer functions in road expansion and reconstruction projects under the strict construction conditions of the urban core area, the paths and strategies are explored to achieve the efficient upgrading of hub interchanges under the premise of maintaining the basic flow of the existing traffic and avoiding the regional traffic paralysis. Taking Xiping Interchange as an example, and on the basis of analyzing the current traffic congestion and predicting the future annual traffic demand, the reconstruction paths and optimization measures for complex hub interchanges are systematically discussed from multiple dimensions of traffic flow composition, optimization of main and auxiliary road systems, construction-phase traffic mitigation strategies, and long-term reservation schemes. After the simulation and analysis by TransModeler software, the long-term operation of the reconstructed hub interchange is basically smooth, providing a referential technical idea and practical insights for the upgrading and reconstruction of similar complex interchanges in urban core areas.
