However, limited by length, vehicles queuing in different functional lanes often interfere with each other, causing wasted green time. This study analyses turning demand, lane division, and signal timing at short-lane intersections, identifying four types of blockages: left-turn queues overflow blocking straight-ahead, straight-ahead blocking left-turn, right-turn queues overflow blocking straight-ahead, and straight-ahead blocking right-turn. Then, various strategies, including signal timing adjustment, phase sequence, and variable lane functions, are considered. The lane capacity matching rate is calculated, and a model for matching the capacity of different functional lanes at signal-controlled intersections is established. The results show that the matching effect of left-turn is significant, with an improvement of 8.0%, followed by a 7.0% increase in right-turn. The corresponding lane delays are also improved, which demonstrates the effectiveness of the model.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/systems13100901","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,10,17]],"date-time":"2025-10-17T11:39:34Z","timestamp":1760701174000},"page":"901","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Capacity Matching Study of Different Functional Lanes at Signalized Intersections"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"13","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3148-8590","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jiao","family":"Yao","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Business School, University of Shanghai for Science and Technology, Shanghai 200093, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Chenke","family":"Zhu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Business School, University of Shanghai for Science and Technology, Shanghai 200093, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yin","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Kunming Railway Logistics Center of China Railway Kunming Group Company Limited, Kunming 650200, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yihang","family":"Liao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Business School, University of Shanghai for Science and Technology, Shanghai 200093, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yan","family":"Peng","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Business School, University of Shanghai for Science and Technology, Shanghai 200093, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,10,13]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","unstructured":"(2010).
