AbstractThis thesis presents a study of traffic flow on Memorial Bridge, Bangkok. In Chapters 2, 3 and 4 analyses of the individual operating elements of traffic flow on Memorial Bridge are given. These elements are volume, speed, and headway for both directions of flow Dhonburi-to-Bangkok and Bangkok-to-Dhonburi. Comparison is made of these basic characteristics of traffic by direction of flow on the bridge. In Chapter 5 some selected mathematical models, which describe the traffic behavior of signle-lane no-passing flow were discussed. This analysis was undertaken to test the validity of the selected models. However, in order to obtain a fuller description of the behavior of single-lane flow, a new parameter was introduced in the model by the author’s modification.
