Popis: Introduction. The formation of a ‘cargo frame’ around large cities leads to a change in the composition of the traffic flow on bypass roads, and an increase in the total traffic flow of trucks of various categories. In addition, the active development of suburban areas with residential complexes contributes to an increase in traffic. The totality of the reflected phenomena leads to the emergence of a certain kind of transport problems, primarily associated with a decrease in throughput. Quite often, such problems are observed at regulated intersections, which requires a prompt change in the control mode; for this, the necessary measure is the mandatory consideration of the technical and dynamic parameters of trucks, which are not fully taken into account in the existing reduction factors. In order to establish the degree of influence of these parameters on the change in the main characteristics of the traffic flow, such as the average travel time and average speed, this study was carried out.Methods and materials. When performing the study, the methods of natural observation, statistical analysis and modelling were applied. The necessary materials for the study were devices for automatic collection of traffic flow characteristics, such as video cameras and traffic detectors, Any Logic version 8.0 for modelling, and a package of descriptive statistics in MS Excel.Results. In the course of the study and the experiment, a difference in the main characteristics of the traffic flow when using standard reduction factors and without using them, taking into account the dynamic and technical parameters of trucks was established. At the object of the study, the difference in the value of the average travel time () for various methods of accounting for trucks, observed in the range [-51.5%; 16.8%] and average speed () in the range [20%; 34%] was determined. As a result of mathematical research, functional relationships between the average speed and traffic intensity are determined, taking into account the presence of trucks of various categories, their technical and dynamic parameters. The ways of further research are determined.
