Download or read book Highways written by Samantha R. Jones and published by Nova Science Pub Incorporated. This book was released on 2010 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The steep rise in road mobility that has taken place during the last decades has resulted in some negative effects that are relevant from a social and economic point of view, such as accidents, congestion, and air pollution. Solutions to mitigate these effects have resulted in improvements in vehicles, infrastructure, and planning. Among these improvements are Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS), or digital road maps, which are based on electronics, control and telecommunications. This book discusses highway construction financing; the balanced vehicular traffic model that describes traffic flow on highways; non-drivers as road users; road engineering and public-private partnerships in highway and transit infrastructure building.

This book was released on 2013 with total page 103 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "TRB's National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) 756: Highway Safety Research Agenda: Infrastructure and Operations develops a proposed agenda of prioritized safety research needs in the area of highway infrastructure and operations. The report provides options to the U.S. transportation community on how to direct research to the areas where it can provide the most benefit. The agenda is based on a prioritization methodology developed by the research team which can be applied on a recurring basis to update the agenda over time. Both the agenda and the methodology documented in this report will assist government officials, private sector employees, and academics with managing highway safety research. In addition to the report, 16 unpublished appendices (Appendices A-O and R) have been made available electronically."--Publisher description.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pursuant to a legislative requirement, GAO: (1) reviewed states' experiences with using warranties in highway contracts; (2) identified efforts to provide adequate maintenance for federal-aid highways; and (3) identified opportunities for improving states' procedures for selecting pavement designs. GAO found that: (1) states' use of contract warranties is limited but generally satisfactory; (2) contractors have raised concerns as to whether warranties are fair and enforceable; (3) federal guidance could help states assess when warranties would be an effective tool for promoting quality; (4) many states have backlogs of maintenance projects, mainly because of resource constraints; (5) Federal Highway Administration (FHwA) oversight has not ensured that states adequately maintain federal-aid highways; (6) FHwA has not established maintenance performance standards for federal-aid highways; (7) many states do not consider the results of life-cycle cost analyses and exclude important data, such as maintenance costs, in selecting pavement designs; and (8) the lack of guidance on what design factors need to be analyzed undermines the states' use of this approach in making investment decisions.

This book was released on 2012 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This synthesis examines current performance-based management practices that are applied by state departments of transportation (DOTs) in highway maintenance and operations (M&O). Past studies have focused on the elements that make up a performance-based M&O approach, such as condition ratings, levels of service, performance measures, and threshold values. This study focuses on how state DOTs actually use performance-based measures to manage their highway programs."--Preface.
