Book Evaluation of the Mobility Impacts of Proposed Ramp Metering and Merge Control Systems

Download or read book Evaluation of the Mobility Impacts of Proposed Ramp Metering and Merge Control Systems written by Michael DeGaspari and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Increasing demand on freeway facilities is a major challenge facing urban areas in the United States and throughout the world. Active Traffic Management (ATM) strategies can be used to increase the performance of these facilities through improved operations without the significant expenditure associated with adding capacity. One ATM strategy that has been widely deployed in the current state of practice is ramp metering, which controls the traffic demand placed on a freeway. Merge control strategies are less prevalent and largely undeveloped. This study examines the recurrently congested northbound section of Interstate Highway 35 that approaches downtown Austin, Texas. Using the VISSIM microsimulation platform, a model of this segment was developed and calibrated to reflect current peak-hour congestion. Within this model, ramp metering and merge control technologies were implemented. The impacts on traffic throughput, speed and travel time for each of these proposed systems are evaluated.

Book Traveler Response to Transportation System Changes

Download or read book Traveler Response to Transportation System Changes written by and published by Transportation Research Board. This book was released on 2003 with total page 139 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The third edition Traveler Response to Transportation System Changes Handbook provides comprehensive information on travel demand effects of alternative urban transportation policies, operating approaches and systems, and built environment options, by building upon, expanding, and selectively replacing the earlier editions to provide a contemporary assessment of the experience and insights gained from the application and analysis of various system changes and alternatives. The focus is on aiding transportation, transit, and land use planners in their conduct of travel demand and related analyses, and to inform elected officials, administrators, operators, designers, and the general public as well. The Traveler Response to Transportation System Changes Handbook consists of the Chapter 1 introductory materials and 15 stand-alone published topic area chapters. Each topic area chapter provides traveler response findings including supportive information and interpretation, and also includes case studies and a bibliography consisting of the references utilized as sources. Please note that Chapters 4, 7, and 8 have been deferred for a future TCRP project effort. The Handbook findings derive primarily from reported results and analyses of real-world transportation system and policy applications and trials. Experimental or quasi-experimental empirical data have been the information source of choice. Other empirical data derivations and simple accounts of outcomes have been employed as necessary. Forecasts and other estimates derived from travel demand model applications and similar techniques have been used, but on a very selective basis; mostly for augmenting the empirical data where gaps exist, and for providing additional insights and context. TCRP Report 95: Traveler Response to Transportation System Changes Handbook will be of interest to transit, transportation, and land use planning practitioners; transportation engineers; land developers, employers, and school administrators; researchers and educators; and professionals across a broad spectrum of transportation and planning; metropolitan planning organizations; and local, state, and federal government agencies."--taken from publisher web site.

Book Advanced Freeway System Ramp Metering Strategies for Texas

Download or read book Advanced Freeway System Ramp Metering Strategies for Texas written by Carroll J. Messer and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Freeway ramp metering systems have been used to improve urban freeway flow. However, control strategies must be properly adjusted to account for ramp queues overflowing onto surface streets and provide equitable on-ramp control during various operating periods. An improved solution can be obtained by optimizing this problem simultaneously for a group of time slices. This study identifies and examines a microcomputer-based optimization scheme that can assist in developing efficient freeway control strategies for on-line freeway surveillance and control. A multi-level freeway control structure is employed for which ramp metering control algorithms are developed for each level of control. Flow-based and lane occupancy-based system algorithms are presented. Detailed data file requirements are provided for each control level. A microcomputer prototype, or laboratory test version of the system level, will be described in a companion project report.
