Book Freeway Modifications to Increase Traffic Flow

Download or read book Freeway Modifications to Increase Traffic Flow written by William R. McCasland and published by . This book was released on 1980 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The manager of a freeway system has several objectives: provide a transportation system adequate to serve the needs of the area; operate the system in an effective and safe manner; and provide a system that is cost effective to install, operate, and maintain. The modifications discussed in this survey address all of these objectives. Because the modifications are usually declared temporary measures, their applications should be clearly defined in scope and intention. The types of problems addressed by these modifications include the following: overloading of the right lane; bypassing mainline queues; freeway bottlenecks; merge conflicts; preferential high occupancy vehicle operation; and maintenance and construction sites.

Book Freeway Corridor Management

Download or read book Freeway Corridor Management written by Conrad L. Dudek and published by Transportation Research Board. This book was released on 1992 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This synthesis will be of interest to state and local traffic engineers, transportation planners, transit operators, law enforcement officials, public information agencies, and others responsible for the transportation elements of freeway corridors. Information is provided on the policies and procedures for freeway corridor management, and descriptions of a number of techniques and practices are presented. Traffic growth and increasing congestion on urban freeways require a comprehensive approach toward managing the complex elements of freeway operations. This report of the Transportation Research Board provides information on freeway corridor management strategies, the components of management, examples of effective applications of the strategies, and benefits of freeway corridor management. The management techniques that are discussed include freeway surveillance and control; corridor street surveillance and control; high-occupancy vehicle facilities and incentives; police enforcement and traffic control; hazardous material and other truck traffic restrictions; alternative route planning; motorist assistance patrols; motorist information techniques; and traffic management for recurrent congestion, for incidents, for special events, and for work zones.

Book Operational and Institutional Agreements that Facilitate Regional Traffic Signal Operations

Download or read book Operational and Institutional Agreements that Facilitate Regional Traffic Signal Operations written by Kevin N. Balke and published by Transportation Research Board. This book was released on 2011 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: TRB's National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Synthesis 420: Operational and Institutional Agreements That Facilitate Regional Traffic Signal Operations (RTSOPs) identifies and highlights critical attributes of successful RTSOPs across the United States. Regions can use RTSOPs to help improve traffic flow as it crosses from one jurisdiction to another. A central focus of these programs is the coordination of signal timing on multi-jurisdictional arterials; however, RTSOPs can also facilitate the consideration of other traffic operations measures to improve regional mobility. Many RTSOPs have been established through regional metropolitan planning organizations, and successful RTSOPs also have been established by other organizations, including state and local departments of transportation and government corporations.
