Summary
The subject is a continuation of the subject Traffic Structures I. It introduces students to the basic types of interchanges, parking of road vehicles, pedestrian and bicycle traffic and traffic calming on local roads. The course also introduces Students to basic Concepts in the area of Transport Routes for Railway Vehicles, especially Railway Tracks, Railway Stations, Railway Sidings, Tram Tracks., and Then the basic issues in Rail Safety Security features and Construction for Security of the Railway Traffi, interoperability and safety of railway system in EU. Finally, the course will introduce basic construction machines and mechanisms used in transport constructions.
Learning outcomes:
- Distinguish and characterize the basic types of level crossings, parking and parking of vehicles.
- Design and apply the principles of pedestrian, bicycle traffic and traffic calming on local roads.
- Define and describe the basic concepts and elements of a transport route for railway vehicles.
- Explain and interpret the principles of safety, interoperability and security of the railway system in the EU.
- Recognize and select basic construction machines and mechanisms used in transport construction.
