The two-step left-turn control model of ring-intersection (RI) has been widely applied to many cities in China. It is still unclear which control model is more suitable when the RI must be reformed due to being unsatisfied with the rapid development of traffic demand. This paper presents a method based on the characteristic of traffic flow in RI considering the efficient performance of the vehicles. Next, a more accurate capacity calculation formula of the left-turn lane is proposed using the stop line method. Then, this method is effectively tested in a typical RI, in the Hunan Province utilizing VISSIM platform.
