Unsignalized intersections consist of three types–-two-way stop-controlled, all-way stop-controlled, and uncontrolled intersections–- all with different priority relationships between traffic movements according to traffic laws. A conflict technique method was used to develop capacity models for the three types of unsignalized intersections under mixed traffic conditions involving vehicular, bicycle, and pedestrian movements. With field data collected from several unsignalized intersections, the model parameters were calibrated by a comparison analysis of traffic conditions in China and were modified on the basis of actual traffic conditions. The capacities obtained by the proposed models matched well with the observed capacities and the capacities calculated by conventional methods, both of which verified the effectiveness of the proposed models. The models proved to be valuable tools for determining capacities of vehicular movements at unsignalized intersections.
