Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This synthesis will be of interest to maintenance engineers, traffic engineers, and others interested in the management aspects of maintaining urban freeways. Information is provided on techniques and procedures used by agencies to improve and speed up maintenance procedures, schedule work, and coordinate freeway lane closures. Maintenance of aging urban freeways is difficult because of the high volumes of traffic on these facilities. This report of the Transportation Research Board describes techniques and procedures that highway agencies are using, such as reducing work time and scheduling work for off-peak periods, to minimize traffic delays while freeway maintenance is performed.

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.

Book excerpt: The purpose of this manual is to provide clear and helpful information for maintaining gravel roads. Very little technical help is available to small agencies that are responsible for managing these roads. Gravel road maintenance has traditionally been "more of an art than a science" and very few formal standards exist. This manual contains guidelines to help answer the questions that arise concerning gravel road maintenance such as: What is enough surface crown? What is too much? What causes corrugation? The information is as nontechnical as possible without sacrificing clear guidelines and instructions on how to do the job right.

Download or read book Managing Urban Logistics written by Rosario Macario and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2024-03-21 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Managing Urban Logistics provides new insights based on the most recent research, theories, and developments in technological and ICT solutions, contemporary corporate trends, the re-evaluation of the role of authorities, and much more. The book shows how to manage these complex urban logistics issues using a long term, systemic perspective where urban freight distribution is an integral part of the entire urban mobility system. It examines the convergence points between mass and customized deliveries, thus modeling the decision processes, trade-offs and tolerances behind these processes to enable a more fluid sharing of urban space.Users will find an approach that tackles these issues from an empirical viewpoint that is based on analysis from a wide set of cases in urban environments around the world. A fresh and unique multidisciplinary approach that is based on solid theoretical background and a pragmatic management standpoint makes this book a must have for those involved in urban logistics. - Blends theory with real-world cases to create viable solutions - Uses an interdisciplinary approach to city logistics in a structured and organized way that is useful for all stakeholders - Shows how to identify logistics profiles and build a logistical map of the city - Examines the technological solutions that can be used to support different business models, adopting a rational, innovative, problem-solving approach to the movement of urban goods

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.
