A PRISMA review of the use of surrogate safety measures at signalized intersections with a focus on its application in mixed traffic condition
摘要
This study looks at how Surrogate Safety Measures (SSMs) are used to evaluate traffic safety at signalized crossings when there is mixed traffic. Real-time flexibility, integration with Connected and Automated Vehicles (CAVs), and data-driven modeling are critical areas that still require investigation. Most SSM models were developed for human-driven vehicles and require modifications for automated environments. Future research should explore how CAVs influence key conflict metrics such as Time-to-Collision and Post Encroachment Time. The integration of Internet of Things technologies, LiDAR, and sensor-based systems presents opportunities to enhance real-time traffic safety assessments. A significant challenge is the lack of standardized SSM thresholds, leading to inconsistencies in risk assessment models. Addressing this requires large-scale meta-analyses and adaptive threshold-setting methodologies. Additionally, traditional SSM methodologies may not fully capture complex traffic interactions. Machine learning and deep learning techniques can enhance safety assessments by dynamically adjusting to real-world conditions. This review systematically analyzes the limitations of current SSM methodologies and proposes AI-driven frameworks for improved predictive accuracy, contributing to proactive safety interventions and more intelligent traffic management strategies.
