Abstract High composition of motorcycles in a mixed traffic situation is common in most Asian countries. In Malaysia, there are approximately 11 million registered motorcycles and the fast growing rate of motorcycle ownership has become a critical issue especially in the safety and management of road traffic system. Improper treatment of motorcycles when signalized intersections are designed will result in additional delay and congestion. In this study, the queuing behavior of motorcycles at signalized intersections was segregated into two categories; namely motorcycles outside flow and motorcycles within traffic flow. Motorcycles outside flow are motorcycles that stopped in front of the stop-line of an approach road and motorcycles travelling alongside other vehicles. Motorcycles within flow are the motorcycles that follow behind other vehicles in the traffic flow. In this study, we aimed to examine the behavior of motorcyclists and their influence on delay and level-of-service of signalized intersections in Malaysia.
