Book Photographic Enforcement of Traffic Laws

Download or read book Photographic Enforcement of Traffic Laws written by Robert R. Blackburn and published by Transportation Research Board. This book was released on 1995 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This synthesis will be of interest to state and local highway agency administrative and executive officers, enforcement agency personnel, attorneys, traffic engineers, and others concerned with managing and enforcing traffic laws at all levels of government. It will also be of interest to manufacturers and marketers of automated speed enforcement (ASE) technology. The synthesis describes the requirements, applications, effectiveness, and issues related to the use of ASE technology. This report of the Transportation Research Board describes the various types of ASE technology as applied in several localities, including descriptions of operational requirements and performance characteristics of these technologies. The synthesis also discusses how citations are processed, and examines the legal and acceptability issues related to ASE technology and public views on these actions. The various technologies on the market at the time of preparation of this synthesis are also described. It should be noted that, as with any application of public surveillance technology, officials are well advised to exercise proper cautions when employing such enforcement procedures.

Book Preferential Lane Treatments for High occupancy Vehicles

Download or read book Preferential Lane Treatments for High occupancy Vehicles written by Charles A. Fuhs and published by Transportation Research Board. This book was released on 1993 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This synthesis will be of interest to transportation planners, highway engineers, environmental personnel, highway design engineers, transit planners, highway administrators, and others concerned with the planning, design, and operational features of preferential high- occupancy vehicle (HOV) lanes on highways. Information is provided on the current and proposed state of the practice in North America. This synthesis describes the state of the art with respect to preferential treatment for HOVs on highways. This report of the Transportation Research Board provides information on long-distance facilities, such as barrier-separated, concurrent-flow (separated and nonseparated), and contraflow facilities, as well as on short-distance facilities, such as queue by-pass lanes. Planning, design, and operational features of each treatment are described. The issues and operating results are described, and specific case studies are included.

Plus, full-color photos, engineering renderings, and informative text show how leading architectural and design firms facilitate the efficient and safe arrival of commuters and recreational travelers.

Book An Introduction to Traffic Flow Theory

Download or read book An Introduction to Traffic Flow Theory written by Lily Elefteriadou and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-19 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This text provides a comprehensive and concise treatment of the topic of traffic flow theory and includes several topics relevant to today’s highway transportation system. It provides the fundamental principles of traffic flow theory as well as applications of those principles for evaluating specific types of facilities (freeways, intersections, etc.). Newer concepts of Intelligent transportation systems (ITS) and their potential impact on traffic flow are discussed. State-of-the-art in traffic flow research and microscopic traffic analysis and traffic simulation have significantly advanced and are also discussed in this text. Real world examples and useful problem sets complement each chapter. This textbook is meant for use in advanced undergraduate/graduate level courses in traffic flow theory with prerequisites including two semesters of calculus, statistics, and an introductory course in transportation. The text would also be of interest to transportation professionals as a refresher in traffic flow theory, or as a reference. Students and engineers of diverse backgrounds will find this text accessible and applicable to today’s traffic issues.

This is reflected in the proceedings presented at the well-established International Conference on Urban Transport and the Environment in the 21st Century. This volume presents the steady growth in research into urban transport and will be of particular interest to engineers, scientists and managers working in industry, universities, research organizations and government; involved in the planning and management of urban transportation systems and transport policy.The variety of topics covered are of primary importance for analysing the complex interaction in the urban transport environment and for establishing action strategies for transport and traffic problems. Featured topics include: Transport Modelling and Simulation; Public Transport Systems; Traffic Integration and Control; Infrastructure and Maintenance; Transport Sustainability; Environment and Ecological Aspects; Air and Noise Pollution; Energy and Transport Fuels; Transport Security and Safety; Road and Parking Pricing; Economic and Social Impact; Land Use and Transport Integration; Advanced Transport Systems; Transportation Demand Analysis.

Book Enforcement Requirements for High occupancy Vehicle Facilities

Download or read book Enforcement Requirements for High occupancy Vehicle Facilities written by N. Craig Miller and published by . This book was released on 1978 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Enforcement of high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) traffic restrictions forms an integral and sometimes critical element of HOV preferential treatment projects. This research (1) reviewed enforcement on HOV facilities, (2) identified effective HOV enforcement techniques, (3) developed model legislation for effective HOV enfoorcement and (4) prepared HOV enforcement guidelines.
