Book Integrated Corridor Management Concept Exploration

Download or read book Integrated Corridor Management Concept Exploration written by Satya Muthuswamy and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The focus of this project was to explore the possibility of ICM in Suffolk County, NY. ICM is considered one of the key strategies of Transportation Systems Management and Operation (TSMO), which involves multimodal and multi jurisdictional efforts in managing congestion caused by incidents along major commute corridors. As part of this research effort, a data driven approach was adopted using available data sources to analyze, quantify, and identify incidents and their traffic impacts. The study area encompassed eight major roadways throughout the county. The trip pattern information from the New York Metropolitan Transportation Council Best Practice Model was supplemented by StreetLight Traffic Data to ensure the use of up-to-date traffic data in order to have an accurate understanding of traffic patterns. In addition, the extensive data available in TRANSCOM Data Fusion Engine (DFE) was used to identify incident scenarios and their travel time impacts, to be analyzed in the simulation model to assess benefits of ICM response plans. To evaluate the potential impacts of ICM response plans, different micro simulation scenarios (in TransModeler) were developed. They evaluated the benefits of ICM response plans that have been triggered to handle incidents along I-495 (Long Island Expressway). The scenarios analyzed incidents at different locations (Eastbound versus Westbound) as well as different time durations. The analysis results indicated potential travel time savings of 30-40% on average.

Book Integrated Corridor Management

Download or read book Integrated Corridor Management written by and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis looks at operational strategies to increase capacity within the context of Integrated Corridor Management (ICM) under a non-recurring Interstate incident scenario. This incident scenario creates lengthy queues and increased delay and travel times on the Interstate, forcing a portion of Interstate traffic to utilize alternate routes throughout the corridor, changing the network traffic patterns. Particular operational strategies are tested under this premise to qualify and mildly quantify the benefits of relaying incident and diversion routing information to corridor drivers, mimicking ITS information dissemination elements such as changeable message signs, highway advisory radio, in vehicle navigation systems and etc. This thesis assumes idealized institutional ICM aspects, data-sharing, and technology integration. The experimental analysis for the corridor network was conducted in VISSIM microsimulation, with its NEMA signal interface, also making use of VISUM macrosimulation, and Synchro 6 signal timing optimization. Based upon the results of this analysis, it was concluded that for the study area, implementing ICM strategies pertaining to advance driver warning and routing information pertaining to an incident can mildly reduce travel time and delay at the entire network-level, but travel time and delay do increase on the incident roadway corridor level when compared to a do nothing scenario during the off-peak period. This research also successfully validates the ability to convert a regional planning-level model into a working microsimulation, operations-level model.

Book Mobility Case Studies

Download or read book Mobility Case Studies written by P. S. Sriraj and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 63 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mobility management and improvement have become the focal point of the federal, state, and local transportation agencies over the last decade. Even with decreasing vehicle-miles-traveled (VMT) over the same time span, the congestion and delays have not improved leading to a renewed focus on multimodal solutions at all levels. While multimodalism has been part of the transportation vocabulary for a long time, and has been aided by legislation to some extent, it has not been embraced into practice at a large scale. Advances in technology (autonomous vehicles, ridesharing services, transportation network companies, improved dynamic wayfinding systems, as well as improved infrastructure) are providing the paradigm shift needed to look at mobility management in a renewed light. The Greater Chicagoland Northeastern Illinois region is no different from many of the most congested regions in the country, in the sense that the vehicle hours of delay for both passenger and freight are among the highest in the country on an annual basis. This report focuses on this region while drawing on the experiences from other parts of the country to set the stage for detailing the state of multimodal transportation or integrated transportation system in northeastern Illinois.
