Abstract
The object of the study is the process of traffic flow in cities, and the subject is this process in relation to regulated street intersections. The main goal of the study is improving the efficiency of traffic organization by preventing the formation of traffic congestion on the street and road network. To achieve this, the creation of an offset left turn was proposed. During the study, the street and road network of Tyumen was considered, and areas for possible construction of the offset left turn were identified. The regulated intersection of 50 Let VLKSM St. and Geologorazvedchikov St. was chosen as the most appropriate. The results of the study showed that the use of the offset left turn would significantly reduce traffic delays and accident risk by reducing conflict points. The evaluation of the effectiveness of proposed solutions also confirmed the positive technological, social, economic and environmental effects.
