Impact of Traffic and Technical Elements of Road On Road Traffic Flow

Suvremeni cestovni promet je nedvojbeno najrazvijeniji i najznačajniji vid kopnenog prometa. U relativno kratkom razdoblju poslije Drugog svjetskog rata izborio dominantnu poziciju u prometu onih dijelova svijeta u kojima je industrijski način proizvodnje najrazvijeniji. Danas se, cestovnim prometom prevozi najviše putnika u svijetu. Kako bi se cestovni promet što kvalitetnije odvijao potrebno je imati razvijenu mrežu. Mreža javnih cesta je jedna od najvažnijih stavki jedne države, ona utječe na gospodarsku razvijenost i povezanost. Kako bi mreža javnih cesta mogla odgovoriti na sve veću potražnju, potrebno u nju konstantno ulagati usavršavanjem, izgradnjom, rekonstruiranjem i održavanjem. Stvarno stanje dionice odnosno njezinu potražnju i buduće stanje možemo analizirati na temelju prometnog opterećenja, propusne moći i drugih parametara. Pravilnom primjenom prometno-tehničkih elemenata ceste pri izradi, rekonstrukciji, održavanju ceste pospješuje se sigurnost prometa, propusna moć dionica i djelomično ili potpuno zadovoljavaju zahtjevi prometne potražnje. Preduvjet za svako donošenja odluka u svrhu ostvarenja zadanih zahtjeva je dobra analiza postojećeg stanja.Modern road traffic is undoubtedly the most developed and most important aspect of land traffic. In a relatively short period after the Second World War, it became a dominant mode of transport in the parts of the world in which the industrial mode of production was the most developed. Today, road traffic is transporting the world's number of passengers. In order to make road transport as good as possible, it is necessary to have a developed traffic network. The public road traffic network is one of the most important part of a country, it affects economic development and connectivity. In order for the public road traffic network to respond to increasing demand, it is necessary to constantly invest in it by perfecting, building, reconstructing and maintaining it. The road section status, its demand and its future status can be analyzed based on traffic load, permeable power and other parameters. The proper use of traffic and technical road elements when making, reconstructing and maintaining the road enhances traffic safety. It also enhances the pervasive power of the road section and partially or completely meet the requirements of traffic demand. The prerequisite for any decision-making in order to achieve the requirements is a good analysis of the existing situation
