Congestion on road sections is concentrated at the signal-controlled crosswalk, which is characterized by long waiting times for pedestrians crossing and slow traffic for vehicles. In view of this problem, we proposes a long-inductive actuated pedestrian crossing signal control for road sections, which move push-button ahead in order to save time for pedestrians. The distance between the push-button and the crosswalk is called the long-inductive distance. Long-inductive distance can make the pedestrian walking time offset by the extension time, which intend to reduce the waiting time of pedestrian crossing. Three long-inductive distance calculation methods are established and tested in VISSIM. The VAP module of VISSIM is used to code the scenarios. Results have shown that the long-inductive distance which utilizes vehicle green extension time and pedestrian walking speed shows the best performance in reducing the pedestrian waiting time when compared to fixed-time signal control and other actuated pedestrian crossing control.
