SIDRA INTERSECTION includes extensive treatment of signalised and unsignalised (zebra) pedestrian crossings at intersections and midblock locations. These include: Effect of pedestrian movements on signal timings (including pedestrian actuation feature). Delays and other performance estimates for pedestrian movements at signalised intersections.  Effect of pedestrians on capacity and performance of vehicle movements. Staged pedestrian crossings with selectable elements (approach or exit side crossing can be specified as not existing). Unsignalised (zebra) crossings on slip / bypass lanes at...

Routes can be defined in a very flexible way for travel performance results and signal offset calculations.  Route output reports and displays include Route Summary, Route Travel Performance, Approach Displays, Lane Displays, Movement Displays, Time-Distance diagrams. Route travel time and average travel speed estimates can be used for model calibration. Route travel times include geometric delays, acceleration and deceleration delays.  For oversaturated conditions, travel times include delays experienced until all vehicles arriving during the analysis period have departed.

SIDRA INTERSECTION is the most advanced software for roundabouts. Read this summary of the many new powerful model features in Version 9.

Site, Network & Route Outputs Various output reports and displays are available in SIDRA INTERSECTION 9: User Reports: Users can define User Report Templates to include selected output report and display elements (tables, graphical displays). Customised output: Users can select the elements (tables, graphical displays) that they wish to include in standard reports and displays. PDF Output: PDF Output function is available to save the output reports and displays in a PDF report. Consistent displays for Sites, Networks and Routes: Approach Displays, Lane Displays, Movement Displays, Lane Flows...

Automatically create Sites using OpenStreetMap data The new Map Extract tool reduces Site setup time and effort by automatically creating new Sites from freely downloadable OpenStreetMap (OSM) data. New Map Extract Feature

Create more detailed Site and Network layouts Improved graphic capabilities that allow you to create more detailed Site and Network layouts for use in reports and presentations. These include: variable size and elliptical shapes for roundabouts,  strip Island connections and  layer order for overpasses and underpasses. Layer Order for Overpasses and Underpasses Connected Strip Islands in RCUT (Left-Hand Traffic) Variable Size and Shape Roundabouts (Left-Hand Traffic)

Graphically optimise two-way progressions quickly and easily SIDRA INTERSECTION 9 introduced an Interactive Offsets function to graphically fine-tune two-way progressions quickly and easily: The graphical Interactive Offsets function is an interactive tool that allows the user to adjust traffic signal offsets in Time-Distance displays towards achieving desirable two-way signal progressions. The enhanced Time-Distance displays generate and display vehicle trajectories on the Main Route and its Reverse Route for visualisation of two-way signal progressions for easy review.  The Time-Distance...

For better insights into design and operations performance SIDRA INTERSECTION 9 features enhanced output reports and displays for better insights into design and operations performance: New in Version 9.02 - Displayed timings for vehicle and pedestrian movements were introduced in the Movement Timing display including presentation of timings reduced due to Pedestrian Actuation, Minor Phase Actuation and Phase Frequency specifications. The improved display visualises the timing data given in tables included in the Timing Analysis and Pedestrian Analysis reports. PDF Output function to save the...

User Interface Many new user interface enhancements for improved workflow have been added to SIDRA INTERSECTION 9: Map Extract tool to create new Sites from map data. Graphical Interactive Offsets function using Time-Distance displays for the user to modify Offsets towards achieving two-way signal progressions. Two-way Time-Distance displays with different orientation options. Enhanced Signal Offset calculations with continuous movements. Pedestrian Crossing (Unsignalised), also called "Zebra Crossing", introduced as applicable to unsignalised Slip / Bypass lanes (available for all Site types)...
