Book Non user Impacts of Different Highway Designs as Measured by Land Use and Land Value Changes

Download or read book Non user Impacts of Different Highway Designs as Measured by Land Use and Land Value Changes written by Jesse L. Buffington and published by . This book was released on 1978 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many studies are found in the literature pertaining to highway impacts on nonusers. This report contains a review of the types of highway impacts, highway impact assessment elements, techniques available to measure land use and land value impacts, and findings of previous studies which indicate the magnitude of land use and land value changes resulting from various types of highway improvement. The land use and/or land value impact measurement techniques are of three major types: (1) land use--land value measurement models, (2) land use--traffic models, and (3) land use--urban development models. Those of the first group have been used much more frequently than those of the other two groups. The finding of land use and land value studies are briefly described in narrative, tabular, or graphic form, acording to the following "key" characteristics of highway improvements and affected areas: (1) location of impact area, (2) type of highway improvement, (3) stage of development of impact area, and (4) dominant land use of impact area. The bulk of highway impact research has been directed toward measuring land use and land value impacts of new limited access highways located in suburban and rural areas. The literature contains no procedure that is designed for the highway analyst to use impact data from previous studies in predicting land use and land value impacts of proposed highway improvements. /FHWA

Book Highway Noise  a Design Guide for Highway Engineers

Download or read book Highway Noise a Design Guide for Highway Engineers written by Bolt, Beranek, and Newman and published by . This book was released on 1971 with total page 840 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Various methods of assessing noise, loudness, and noise annoyance are reviewed and explained; sources, types, and intensities of traffic noise are noted; typical means of abatement and attenuation are described; design criteria for various land uses ranging from low-density to industrial are suggested and compared with the results of previous BBN and British systems for predicting annoyance and complaint; and a design guide for predicting traffic noise, capable of being programmed for batch and on-line computer applications, is presented in form suitable for use as a working tool. A flow diagram describes the interrelationships of elements in the traffic noise prediction methodology, and each element is discussed in detail in the text. The text is presented of a tape recording that takes the listener through a series of traffic situations, with such variables as traffic distance, flow velocity, distance, outdoors and indoors, and presence or absence of absorbers and attenuators.

Book Land Value and Land Use Effects of Elevated  Depressed  and At grade Level Freeways in Texas

Download or read book Land Value and Land Use Effects of Elevated Depressed and At grade Level Freeways in Texas written by and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To answer questions being raised by abutting residents and businesses about proposed elevated and/or depressed freeway improvements in the urban and suburban areas of Texas, a four-year study has been conducted to estimate the social, economic, and environmental effects of such freeway designs. Eight existing, two under-construction, and one approved-for-construction freeway sections have been studied on a before-, during-, and after-construction basis. The sections selected for study range from being predominantly residential suburban areas to predominantly commercial-industrial downtown areas. The specific effects of the study estimated for each study section include: (1) social impacts: population changes, neighborhood, accessibility, and neighborhood cohesion; (2) economic impacts: relocation and mitigation costs, business sales, property uses and values, tax revenues, employment and income, and user costs; and (3) environmental impacts: aesthetics, drainage and erosion, noise and air pollution, vibration, and hazardous spills. The literature review and a survey of highway agencies in other states were used to determine the appropriate procedures or models and mitigation measures to implement in estimating the social, economic, and environmental impacts of elevated and depressed freeways. The results of the study, presented in six separate reports according to types of effect, can be used by highway planning and designing engineers to prepare environmental statements and documents of the expected social, economic, and environmental impacts of proposed elevated and depressed freeway projects. Also, the results can be disseminated at the public hearings for a proposed project. This report presents the findings of the land value and use effects of elevated, depressed, and at-grade level freeways. The findings from prior studies indicate that freeway grade level differences in abutting land values are significant for certain land uses. However, these differences are negative or positive, depending upon the type of abutting land use. The results of this study confirm those findings.
