Book Evaluating the Impacts of Time Of Day Tolling on Indiana Roadways

Download or read book Evaluating the Impacts of Time Of Day Tolling on Indiana Roadways written by Satish Ukkusuri and published by . This book was released on 2017-10-15 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent decades, tolling has been implemented in many highways, bridges, and tunnels for generating revenues for construction, management, and maintenance. To setup tolling scenarios, traditional methods, such as surveys and public hearing, are time and cost consuming. In addition, there likely have various impacts for the different levels of toll. However, there is a lack of handy tool for analyzing the impacts of time-of-day tolling on roadways. Therefore, the purposes of this project are: 1) propose a model to capture the relationship between the time-of-day toll and route choice; 2) develop a TOD analysis software that is convenient for quickly evaluating the impacts of various time-of-day tolling scenarios; 3) easy visualize traffic flows on roadways through different toll rates; 4) and graphically illustrate the revenue, monetary savings, travel times, speeds, VHT, VMT, and welfare from the results. The TOD analysis pack can help to reduce drastically the time and effort in analyzing the costs and impacts of any time-of-day tolling project. It also provides a convenient and flexible tool for testing the impacts of various tolling scenarios for any highway. The visualization features can illustrate the diversion of traffic due to tolling implementation, and can display the top-ten most impacted roads. The TOD analysis pack can seamlessly be jointed-up with the existing TransCAD models that already exist at INDOT. Moreover, the application can be integrated with Google Maps, which provides additional information for users.

Book Assessing the Environmental Justice Impacts of Toll Road Projects

Download or read book Assessing the Environmental Justice Impacts of Toll Road Projects written by Lindsey Elizabeth Carroll and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inadequate and uncertain transportation funding have in recent years resulted in a renewed emphasis on using investments that can be recovered by toll charges to finance new roads and modernize existing roads. This has raised questions about environmental justice (EJ) and how it pertains to tolling. In 2004, TxDOT Project 0-5208 was funded to propose an approach for the identification, measurement, and mitigation of disproportionately high or adverse impacts imposed on minority and low-income (EJ) communities by toll roads relative to non-tolled facilities. The methodology proposed had two equally important components: an analysis/quantitative component and an effective EJ participation component. However, the research raised concerns about the ability of various available analytical tools and analysis techniques to measure the potential impacts imposed on EJ communities by toll roads relative to non-toll roads. The objective of this thesis study was to extend the work that was conducted under TxDOT Research Project 0-5208 by (a) reviewing the ability of available tools and analysis techniques to quantify and qualitatively describe the EJ impacts associated with toll road projects and toll road systems through an evaluation of state-of-the-practice applications, and (b) recommending a suitable approach to assess the EJ impacts of toll roads and toll road systems on EJ communities. The research conducted to meet the study objectives has culminated in this thesis.

This book was released on 2018 with total page 413 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: TRB's National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Research Report 860: Assessing the Environmental Justice Effects of Toll Implementation or Rate Changes: Guidebook and Toolbox provides a set of tools to enable analysis and measurement of the impacts of toll pricing, toll payment, toll collection technology, and other aspects of toll implementation and rate changes on low-income and minority populations. The guidebook shows the practitioner when and how to apply the tools in the toolbox through an eight-step process framework corresponding to the typical transportation project planning and development process. The guidebook and toolbox together provide an assessment framework and supporting tools to measure the impacts of tolling on such factors as mobility, access, and household expenditures, as well as tools to engage low-income and minority populations.
