Book Passing Lanes and Other Operational Improvements on Two lane Highways

Download or read book Passing Lanes and Other Operational Improvements on Two lane Highways written by Douglas W. Harwood and published by . This book was released on 1986 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many two-lane highways in rural areas experience operational problems related to high traffic volumes; lack of adequate passing opportunities; slow-moving vehicles on grades and in rolling terrain; roadside development that generates turning maneuvers at driveways; and turning movements at intersections. This report evaluates five operational aids or treatments intended to alleviate these problems including: passing lanes, short four-lane sections, shoulder use sections, turnouts, and two-way left-turn lanes. The report reviews current signing, marking, and design practices used for these operational treatments in 13 states that participated in the study.

Book Low cost Methods for Improving Traffic Operations on Two lane Roads

Download or read book Low cost Methods for Improving Traffic Operations on Two lane Roads written by Douglas W. Harwood and published by . This book was released on 1987 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report is an Informational Guide for highway agencies on the use of low-cost improvements to alleviate operational problems on two-lane highways. The Guide addresses both passing and turning improvements that can be constructed for a lower cost than construction of a continuous four-lane highway. The passing improvements presented in the Guide include passing lanes, climbing lanes, short four-lane sections, turnouts, shoulder driving, and shoulder use sections. The turning improvements included are intersection turn lanes, shoulder bypass lanes, and two-way left-turn lanes. Design and traffic control guidelines presented for these improvements include location and configuration guidelines, geometric design criteria, recommended signing and marking practices, and operational and safety effectiveness estimates.

Book Accident Modification Factors for Traffic Engineering and ITS Improvements

Download or read book Accident Modification Factors for Traffic Engineering and ITS Improvements written by David L. Harkey and published by Transportation Research Board. This book was released on 2008 with total page 85 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: TRB¿s National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Report 617: Accident Modification Factors for Traffic Engineering and ITS Improvements explores the development of accident modification factors (AMFs) for traffic engineering and intelligent transportation system improvements. AMFs, also known as crash reduction factors, are designed to provide a simple and quick way of estimating the safety impacts of various types of engineering improvements, encompassing the areas of signing, alignment, channelization, and other traffic engineering solutions.
