Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "TRB's National Cooperative Freight Research Program (NCFRP) Report 31: Incorporating Truck Analysis into the Highway Capacity Manual presents capacity and level-of-service techniques to improve transportation agencies' abilities to plan, design, manage, and operate streets and highways to serve trucks. The techniques also assist agencies' ability to evaluate the effects of trucks on other modes of transportation. These techniques are being incorporated into the Highway Capacity Manual, but will be useful to planners and designers working on projects with significant truck traffic."--Publisher description.

Download or read book The Highway Capacity Manual A Conceptual and Research History Volume 2 written by Elena S. Prassas and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-01-08 with total page 395 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since 1950, the Highway Capacity Manual has been a standard used in the planning, design, analysis, and operation of virtually any highway traffic facility in the United States. It has also been widely used around the globe and has inspired the development of similar manuals in other countries. This book is Volume II of a series on the conceptual and research origins of the methodologies found in the Highway Capacity Manual. It focuses on the most complex points in a traffic system: signalized and unsignalized intersections, and the concepts and methodologies developed over the years to model their operations. It also includes an overview of the fundamental concepts of capacity and level of service, particularly as applied to intersections. The historical roots of the manual and its contents are important to understanding current methodologies, and improving them in the future. As such, this book is a valuable resource for current and future users of the Highway Capacity Manual, as well as researchers and developers involved in advancing the state-of-the-art in the field.
Download or read book Using Travel Time Measures to Estimate Mobility and Reliability in Urban Areas written by Timothy J. Lomax and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are several keys to developing and applying mobility measures that are technically useful and generally understandable. Travel time measures are relatively easy to comprehend, but they have not always been used because of data concerns, mandated reporting practices and other issues. Travel time and speed measures can serve many different uses, communicate to many different audiences and enhance the ability of project analysis techniques to determine the most appropriate set of policies, programs and projects for a situation. The overriding conclusion from any investigation of mobility and reliability measures is that there is a range of uses and audiences. No single measure will satisfy all the needs, and no single measure can identify all aspects of mobility or reliability - there is no "silver bullet" measure. The problems are complex and in many cases require more than one measure, more than a single data source and more than one analysis procedure. Mobility and reliability performance measures, when combined in a process to uncover the goals and objectives the public has for transportation systems, can provide a framework to analyze how well the land use and transportation systems serve the needs of travelers and businesses

Download or read book Mobility First written by Sam Staley and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2009 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traffic congestion is a growing problem and unless policy makers and transportation officials make some dramatic changes, it will rise to unacceptable levels by 2030. In, Sam Staley and Adrian Moore explain the inefficient systems and politics that cause this escalating epidemic, presenting commonsense, high-tech solutions that will ease congestion and its troubling consequences. The book considers transportation policy through the intersection of four crucial and timely elements: global, economic, and cultural competitiveness; urban development trends; demographics; and transportation engineering and design. It sets goals for congestion reduction, outlines performance standards that increase transparency, calls for the redesign of the regional transportation network, and describes sufficient investment in technology.
