A computer simulation is important for the analysis geometry of freeways and urban streets systems.Transportation specialists can study the formation and removal of congestion on roadways. Theintersection is one major cause that has a significant effect on travel time, delay, level of service, queues,stop, performance index, degree of saturation and capacity. The target of this paper research is toanalysis the geometry and intersection classification of traffic flow to provide useful information forengineers to design the roads with the shortest travel time and enhance the capacity of road networksand relieve the congestion in cities.The data required for the study were mainly collected from through video filming technique also thecalculation and evaluation are constructed with the aaSIDRA software in the 2011.
