Abstract :

Traffic congestion at intersection is on the increase as the numbers of vehicles increases in Auchi metropolis, which causes delay and also led to accident that has claimed human life. M/M/1 model was used to analysed the queuing characteristic of the intersection to determine the arrival rate and service rate of the vehicles. An operation research software known as TORA version 2.5 was used to analyze the arrival and service time data obtained to determine the operating characteristics of the M/M/s model for the intersection. The result showed that the average traffic intensity of the intersection is more than the optimal traffic intensity of 0.5 which means the intersection is congested.
