Abstract

Suzhou, known as the Land of Fish and Rice, is located in the middle of the Yangtze Delta in southern Jiangsu Province. Xi’an Jiaotong Liverpool University, located in the city of Suzhou, is currently the largest Sino-foreign cooperative university in China, with a campus built with modern infrastructures and an independent environment. However, with an increased number of citizens traveling to the university, as well as night market culture being popular at the campus, the road at the campus has been considered to become congested and accident-prone. Hence, this work evaluated the existing road construction, and the road conditions during daytime and nighttime at the university, and analyzed the possible causes of traffic jams and accidents at the campus, such as lack of driving skills for people, or weak road conditions, which further give suggestions to avoid traffic jam, such as improve road signs, construct multi-usage road, and more parking lots with advanced parking system.
