Abstract

The paper describes the decision support system for safety management on the motorway section. The system is based on the estimation of the probability of traffic accidents on the motorway - Crash potential. Based on this assessment, the system recommends active measures to reduce the likelihood of their actual occurrence. The paper presents a model based on the ANFIS methodology and is based on measuring the values of selected traffic flow parameters and external factors that affect the flow of traffic. This approach is important for improving existing algorithms for managing variable traffic signs on highways.
