Book Development Phase of a Traffic Control Device Inventory

Download or read book Development Phase of a Traffic Control Device Inventory written by Wilbur Smith and Associates and published by . This book was released on 1972 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study was initiated by the Iowa State Highway Commission to develop a system for the inventory and evaluation of traffic control devices located on the Iowa Primary Highway System. The Primary System is composed of over 10,000 miles of highway containing approximately 200,000 signs, and 1,000 traffic signals. There are three principal types of traffic control devices considered in this study: (1) signs, (2) traffic signals, and (3) pavement markings. Five basic work elements comprised this developmental study: development of field procedures and forms, development of control device evaluation bases, development of an inventory data processing system, conduct of a pilot inventory, and recommendation for inventory implementation.

Book Traffic Control Device Inventory Data Processing System

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To provide documentation of the Data Processing System designed for the maintenance and retrieval of Traffic Control Devices. This System was designed as part of the project Developmental Phase of a Traffic Control Device Inventory for the Iowa State Highway Commission. Full development of inventory procedures, analysis, and evaluation criteria are contained in the principal project report. This manual is present in three sections: Sign Inventory, Signal Inventory, and Pavement Marking Inventory. Each section describes the System, Input/Output Media and the various Computer Programs developed for the System.

Book Traffic Control Systems Handbook

Download or read book Traffic Control Systems Handbook written by and published by . This book was released on 1976 with total page 670 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This handbook, which was developed in recognition of the need for the compilation and dissemination of information on advanced traffic control systems, presents the basic principles for the planning, design, and implementation of such systems for urban streets and freeways. The presentation concept and organization of this handbook is developed from the viewpoint of systems engineering. Traffic control studies are described, and traffic control and surveillance concepts are reviewed. Hardware components are outlined, and computer concepts, and communication concepts are stated. Local and central controllers are described, as well as display, television and driver information systems. Available systems technology and candidate system definition, evaluation and implementation are also covered. The management of traffic control systems is discussed.

Book Traffic Signal Timing Manual

Download or read book Traffic Signal Timing Manual written by U.s. Department of Transportation and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-02-20 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report serves as a comprehensive guide to traffic signal timing and documents the tasks completed in association with its development. The focus of this document is on traffic signal control principles, practices, and procedures. It describes the relationship between traffic signal timing and transportation policy and addresses maintenance and operations of traffic signals. It represents a synthesis of traffic signal timing concepts and their application and focuses on the use of detection, related timing parameters, and resulting effects to users at the intersection. It discusses advanced topics briefly to raise awareness related to their use and application. The purpose of the Signal Timing Manual is to provide direction and guidance to managers, supervisors, and practitioners based on sound practice to proactively and comprehensively improve signal timing. The outcome of properly training staff and proactively operating and maintaining traffic signals is signal timing that reduces congestion and fuel consumption ultimately improving our quality of life and the air we breathe. This manual provides an easy-to-use concise, practical and modular guide on signal timing. The elements of signal timing from policy and funding considerations to timing plan development, assessment, and maintenance are covered in the manual. The manual is the culmination of research into practices across North America and serves as a reference for a range of practitioners, from those involved in the day to day management, operation and maintenance of traffic signals to those that plan, design, operate and maintain these systems.
