The article deals with the priority passage of regulated intersections by public transport using the method of extending the permitting signal. The relevance of the problem under consideration is due to insufficient study of the issue of choosing the optimal control parameters for the method of extending the resolving signal. Using simulation modeling, a study was carried out of the priority passage control process on two- and three-lane road sections. In the course of the experiment, the dependences between the extension time of the allowed signal and the cycle duration were determined at different ratios of the phase coefficients, as well as the optimal distance of the priority activation detectors. The obtained results of the research work can be used in the design of the urban intelligent transport system and when adjusting the control modes in the automated traffic control system of the urban agglomeration.
