ANÁLISE E READEQUAÇÃO DO PROJETO GEOMÉTRICO DA INTERSEÇÃO DE ACESSO A TRÊS PONTAS - MG, SITUADA NA MG-167

Abstract

This study had as objective the analysis and realignment of the intersection’s geometric project which gives access to Três Pontas - MG, because of mainly the events of accidents on it. For this purpose were done comparisons between the place’s actual situation with the rules presented for the traffic Brazilian agency’s that are qualified in the area of traffic studies and highways. It was developed volumetric count of the vehicles and the topographical survey of the intersection, so that the information about the studied were obtained. From them, were decided the parameters as level of service and the intersection capacity, the slopes of the tracks and the project vehicle. And so, were verified the failures that the intersection presented, as the solutions for that it can assist the traffic requests that use it. The advances could be done through a new geometric project of the roundabout that considers the necessary modifications.
