| Abstract | The Level-of-Service (LOS) has proved to be an important and practical quality of service indicator for transportation facilities around the world, widely used in the transportation and planning fields. The LOS rates these facilities traffic operating conditions through the following delay-based indicators (ordered from best to worst conditions): A, B, C, D, E and F. This LOS rating has its foundation on quantifiable measures of effectiveness and on road users perceptions. Altogether, these measures define a LOS based on acceptable traffic operating conditions for the road users. This study shows how road users (motorists) evaluate signalized intersection Level of Service (LOS) according to the methodology developed by Highway Capacity Manual (HCM) for user perception. |
