Book Measuring the Success of a Transportation Project

Download or read book Measuring the Success of a Transportation Project written by Angelika Kizior and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 103 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Measuring the success of a transportation project as it is envisioned in the Regional Transportation Plan (RTP) and is detailed in an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) is not part of any current planning process, for a post construction analysis may have political consequences for the project participants, would incur additional costs, and may be difficult to define in terms of scope. With local, state and federal budgets shrinking, funding sources are demanding that the performance of a project be evaluated and project stakeholders be held accountable. The Transportation Research Board (TRB) developed a framework that allows transportation agencies to customize their reporting so that a project's performance can be measured. In the case of the Red Mountain Freeway, the selected performance measure allows for comparing the population forecasts, the traffic volumes, and the project costs defined in the final EIS to actual population growth, actual average annual daily traffic (ADT), and actual project costs obtained from census data, the City of Mesa, and contractor bids, respectively. The results show that population projections for both Maricopa County and the City of Mesa are within less than half a percent of the actual annual population growth. The traffic analysis proved more difficult due to inconsistencies within the EIS documents, variations in the local arterials used to produce traffic volume, and in the projection time-spans. The comparison for the total increase in traffic volume generated a difference of 11.34 percent and 89.30 percent. An adjusted traffic volume equal to all local arterials and US 60 resulted in a difference of 40 percent between the projected and actual ADT values. As for the project cost comparison, not only were the costs within the individual documents inconsistent, but they were underestimated by as much as 75 percent. Evaluating the goals as described in an EIS document using the performance measure guidelines provided by the TRB may provide the tool that can help promote conflict resolution for political issues that arise, streamline the planning process, and measure the performance of the transportation system, so that lessons learned can be applied to future projects.

Book Evaluation of Off ramp Right Turn Control at Single Point Urban Interchanges Without Frontage Roads

Download or read book Evaluation of Off ramp Right Turn Control at Single Point Urban Interchanges Without Frontage Roads written by and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study focused on the control of the off-ramp right turn movement at single point urban interchanges (SPUIs) without frontage roads. The objective of this research project was to evaluate the safety and efficiency of traffic control for off-ramp right turns. For the purposes of this project, two common forms of off-ramp right turn traffic control were investigated: signal control and yield control. The process followed during this research focused on two main aspects of the off-ramp right turn movement: safety and operations. The project was composed of the following stages: literature review, safety analysis and operation analysis. Literature Review: A literature review was conducted to provide the research team a broader perspective on other studies concerned with this aspect of SPUIs. The review was looking for the various traffic controls and interchange configurations that could particularly affect the safety and operation efficiency of off-ramp right turn movement. Safety Analysis: Long-term trends in crash occurrences and short-term observations of conflicts at six study sites (12 off-ramp locations) were analyzed. Crash rates and conflict rates were determined in order to compare and contrast the two means of assessing safety as well as how they relate to the type of the traffic control used at the off-ramps. Operations Analysis: Detailed traffic data collected at the study sites were used to calculate actual delays for off-ramp right turn movements at the study sites. These field data were also used to conduct simulations of interchange sites, which supplemented the calculations based on the limited sample of study sites. The simulation models provided a means of testing different combinations of off-ramp right turn control types and overall interchange conditions in order to determine the effects of signal and yield control.
