Book State of the Art Report

Download or read book State of the Art Report written by and published by . This book was released on 1981 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The research program "Improving The Residential Street Environment" deals with control and restraint or management of traffic on local residential streets. This State of The Art report covers current practices in this field through 1978. The report assesses the performance of various control devices to affect traffic on existing residential streets (as opposed to initial design features of new Subdivisions). Included are diagonal diverters, half-diverters, cul-de-sacs, median barriers, speed bumps and undulations, stop signs, rumble strips and many other measures. The report also details techniques for developing neighborhood traffic control plans including community involvement and technical evaluation elements.

Book Comprehensive Engineering Approach to Achieving Safe Neighborhoods

Download or read book Comprehensive Engineering Approach to Achieving Safe Neighborhoods written by James A. Bonneson and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Steady increases in travel demand coupled with minimal increases in arterial street capacity have led to an increase in traffic-related safety problems in residential neighborhoods. These problems stem from the significant number of motorists that divert from the arterial to the residential street system in an effort to avoid arterial-related delays. Diverted motorists add to neighborhood traffic volumes and increase crash exposure for pedestrians, bicyclists, and other vehicles. In addition, diverted motorists often drive at excessive speed, which increases both the potential for a crash and its severity. The objective of this research was to develop guidelines for the use of both neighborhood traffic management and corridor traffic management techniques that have the potential to reduce speed or cut-through volume on the local street system. The approach taken to conduct this research was to develop as much of the guideline material through a synthesis of the literature and to supplement this synthesis with some investigative research in areas where information was lacking. A model was developed for this research that can predict the percent of arterial drivers that cut-through the adjacent neighborhood streets. The data used to develop this model were obtained from extensive simulations of a typical city street system that includes arterial, collector, and local streets. The model variables include average arterial travel speed, signal density (in signals per mile), and the degree of saturation of the signalized intersections on the arterial. Percent cut-through traffic was found to range from 0.0 to 30% of the arterial volume, with the higher percentage associated with oversaturated signalized intersections. Several recommendations for future research in the area of traffic management techniques were developed. Fundamentally, it is recommended that additional research be conducted on the effectiveness of alternative traffic management techniques. For neighborhood traffic management techniques, before-and-after data are needed to assess technique effectiveness in terms of volume reduction, speed reduction, and crash reduction. For corridor traffic management, further research efforts are necessary to verify the accuracy of the cut-through traffic prediction model developed for this research.

Book Traffic Calming

Download or read book Traffic Calming written by Reid H. Ewing and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The document reports the state of traffic calming programs in the United States. It also includes historical information about programs in other countries. For the purposes of this report, traffic calming involves changes in street alignment, installation of barriers, and other physical measures to reduce traffic speeds and cut-through volumes in the interest of street safety, livability, and other public purposes. This report focuses mainly on physical measures, including street closures and other volume controls under the traffic calming umbrella. Education and enforcement activities, such as neighborhood traffic safety campaigns, fall outside the umbrella but will be mentioned where relevant.
