Optimisation of intersections' performance using traffic signal coordination in Padang, Indonesia.

Padang is one of the metropolitan cities in Indonesia and the capital city of West Sumatra Province. As a metro city, traffic jams are one of the city's problems, especially at adjacent intersections. Isolated traffic management applied in the city has yet to successfully solve the problem. This paper aims to evaluate the performance of some intersections if traffic signal coordination is applied. In this simulation study, PTV Vissim software was used. The study's findings indicated that traffic signal coordination would improve the traffic performance of the intersection. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
