On the basis of gap-acceptance theory, mixed traffic flow composed of two representative vehicle types—heavy and light vehicles—is analyzed with probability theory. A capacity model is set up for an unsignalized intersection in which the minor-stream mixed traffic flows cross m major lanes and the traffic flow headways fit the M3 distribution; it is an extension of minor-lane capacity theory for one vehicle type and one major-stream traffic flow. A more complicated case with minor-stream flow composed of discretionary vehicle types is also considered, and the corresponding formula is given. After field testing in China, the conclusion is drawn that this model is better for analyzing Chinese traffic conditions than are other existing models.
