Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report presents the results of an attitude survey concerning one-way and two-way freeway frontage roads. This research was part of a two-year study for developing warrants for conversion from two-way to one-way frontage roads. Interviews were conducted with 121 individuals in 15 different small and medium-sized cities in Texas. All of the 15 cities have freeways with two-way or one-way frontage roads. The results of the attitude survey showed that the increased safety associated with one-way frontage roads is universally recognized by all interest groups. Operational considerations, such as capacity, are much less understood.

Book excerpt: "Since the publication of the first edition of the Access Management Manual, the context for transportation planning and roadway design in the United States has been transformed. Transportation agencies and local governments are under growing pressure to integrate land use and transportation policy and achieve a more sustainable, energy-efficient transportation system. This second edition of the manual responds to these developments by addressing access management comprehensively, as a critical part of network and land use planning. The content is interdisciplinary, with guidance pertinent to various levels of government as well as to pedestrians, bicyclists, and motorized vehicles, including trucks and buses, and is strongly grounded in decades of research, engineering science, and professional experience. Greater emphasis is placed on appropriate location of access, and guidance is refined to provide appropriate consideration of context and community issues. Substantial updates aid state and local agencies in managing access to corridor development effectively. Specific guidance on network and circulation planning and modal considerations is included, as well as guidance on effective site access and circulation design. A chapter on corridor management reinforces these concepts with a framework for application of access management in different contexts, along with appropriate strategies for each context. There are also new chapters on network planning, regional access management policies and programs, interchange area access management, auxiliary lane warrants and design, and right-of-way and access control. The manual concludes with an extensive menu of access management techniques and information on their application"--Provided by publisher.

Download or read book A Guide for Achieving Flexibility in Highway Design written by and published by AASHTO. This book was released on 2004 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Context-sensitive solutions (CSS) reflect the need to consider highway projects as more than just transportation facilities. Depending on how highway projects are integrated into the community, they can have far-reaching impacts beyond their traffic or transportation function. CSS is a comprehensive process that brings stakeholders together in a positive, proactive environment to develop projects that not only meet transportation needs, but also improve or enhance the community. Achieving a flexible, context-sensitive design solution requires designers to fully understand the reasons behind the processes, design values, and design procedures that are used. This AASHTO Guide shows highway designers how to think flexibly, how to recognize the many choices and options they have, and how to arrive at the best solution for the particular situation or context. It also strives to emphasize that flexible design does not necessarily entail a fundamentally new design process, but that it can be integrated into the existing transportation culture. This publication represents a major step toward institutionalizing CSS into state transportation departments and other agencies charged with transportation project development.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective of the research was to develop a procedure for evaluating the operations along one-way and twoway freeway frontage roads. The developed procedure is based on the arterial analysis chapter of the Highway Capacity Manual and includes consideration of the delays that are incurred at ramp junctions. To develop the level-of-service analysis procedure, data were collected at several locations within Texas. Travel time, volume, and access density data were collected at 20 one-way frontage road sites and nine two-way frontage road sites. Delay data were collected at six ramp junctions. The results showed that signalized intersections have the greatest impact on the operations along a frontage road. Access density (i.e., the number of driveways and unsignalized intersections per km) affects the operations along a frontage road segment when greater than 20 acs/km on one-way frontage roads and greater than 16 acs/km on two-way frontage roads. The developed procedure produced reasonable results when compared to the average speed measured at six one-way and six two-way frontage road sites. Predicted results were generally within 3 km/in of measured speeds.

Book excerpt: The research project examined certain effects of converting the Interstate 30 (I-30) frontage roads in the central Arkansas area from two-way operation to one-way operation in 2002. The following characteristics before and after the conversion were studied: the number of crashes; traffic volumes; speeds; travel times between nodes; land use; sales taxes for certain businesses; and the opinions of business owners and operators in the corridor.
