This paper is devoted to improving both the efficiency and the environmental friendliness of road vehicles during their operations through optimization of traffic phase duration within the controlled crossings. A novel criterion to optimize traffic phase duration within a controlled crossing is proposed. The proposed criterion supposes the minimal total delays of all road users waiting for a permissive traffic signal at the crossing and takes into consideration both pedestrian density and the number of passengers in vehicles. The calculation technique for the traffic phase was proposed, according to which delays of all road users were optimized, helping to improve the efficiency of vehicle operation within crossings. Based on the method, a technique to control traffic within crossings is developed and tested. Comparative analysis confirmed the decrease in unproductive delays of vehicles within the controlled crossings by contrast with the traditional approach. The technique makes it possible to reduce the delay of road users by 15-20% depending upon road crowding, the number of pedestrians, and passengers. Owing to the decreased period of waiting for a permissive traffic signal, the energy efficiency of public transport increases.

The article is devoted to the issue of the negative effect of delays in the movement of special rescue vehicles on the effectiveness of their mission. The dependence of the area of fire on the delay of the arrival of firefighters using a fire-rescue vehicle is shown. The cascading graph of route options of special vehicle movement to the place of an emergency call is given. The algorithm of the optimal route choice of the special vehicle motion with given projected delays is offered. Based on the graph theory, probability theory, and the basic principles of traffic organization, the article proposes a new way to determine the optimal route.

By the methods of field research, it is determined the primary factors of traffic flows on the sections of urban twolane streets, where routes of tram and urban bus movement which have motion in general structure of traffic flow are laid. Using methods of documentary research and traffic simulation, there are received results of change of average operational speed of tram and urban bus movement during different periods of operation on the route; traffic flow delays connected with technological features of tram and urban bus routes functioning in zone of operation of tram and urban bus stops and controlled intersections. Using methods of traffic simulation, it is determined possible time losses and queue length in traffic flows in conditions of increase of traffic volume and change of its composition (increase of urban public transport rate).
