Download or read book Freeway Management Handbook written by James D. Carvell and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 632 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This handbook is an update of the 1983 edition and reflects the tremendous developments in computing and communications technology. It also reflects the importance of "Integrated" Transportation Management Systems and the development of the concept of Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS). The handbook development began with a survey of current practice, including site visits and interviews, of ten Freeway Management Systems throughout the country. It was developed under the advice of a panel of freeway management practitioners. The 1997 edition is organized in modular fashion with each module addressing a particular aspect or technology of the freeway management task. The modules are stand-alone treatments of particular areas of freeway management but are cross-referenced to reflect their interdependence

Download or read book Air Quality Impacts of Highway Construction and Scheduling written by Dennis G. Perkinson and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The passage of the 1990 Clean Air Act Amendments (CAAA) has resulted in several urban areas in Texas being designated non-attainment areas. While the non-attainment areas are acting to improve air quality, several near non-attainment areas need to act to maintain their air quality at current levels to avoid being designated a non-attainment area. These areas are reviewing several transportation-related strategies to reduce emissions and prevent further degradation of air quality. One option already being implemented is the observation of ozone action days that encourage citizens to seek alternative modes of travel such as transit and car pool/van pool on days conducive to the formation of high ozone levels. Alternative highway construction practices may also offer air quality benefits, especially on ozone action days. Reconstruction and rehabilitation activities requiring lane closures on high-volume roadways result in traffic congestion and delays. The traffic congestion caused by construction activities and the materials and equipment used in construction may aggravate the air quality problem in non-attainment areas, especially during hot summer months when atmospheric conditions lead to the formation of high ozone levels. There is a need to determine the impact of highway construction on air quality and to determine alternative construction practices designed to minimize the detrimental effects on ambient air quality.

Download or read book Performance Survey on Open graded Friction Course Mixes written by Gerald Huber and published by Transportation Research Board. This book was released on 2000 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This synthesis will be of interest to pavement construction, maintenance, design, and materials engineers; pavement contractors; and others interested in the use of open-graded friction course (OGFC) mixes. It describes the current state of the practice on the use of OGFC mixes, including information regarding design, materials, construction, maintenance, and rehabilitation strategies. Alternative treatments to traditional OGFC are also identified and discussed. Information was collected by surveying U.S. and Canadian transportation agencies and by conducting a literature search to gather additional insight into North American and European practices. This TRB report describes the recent performance of North American OGFC mixes and European porous asphalt by identifying benefits and stress indicators. A new generation of OGFC mixes has evolved over the last 5 years with changes that have been reported to dramatically improve performance. This synthesis describes new materials and design methods being used, as well as the applicability of the new generation of open-graded mixtures to North American use.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective of this research project was to determine appropriate guidelines and methodology for evaluating dynamic message sign (DMS) performance. National literature reviews and agency surveys were conducted and synthesized for a critical assessment of the state-of-the practice in DMS performance evaluation. DMS performance metrics were established based upon data availability, time of evaluation (pre-post)), and environment of application (urban/rural). Both qualitative and quantitative DMS benefits were established with examples of associated analysis tools given and discussed. Case studies were conducted along freeway corridors where DMSs had been implemented in both urban (Houston, Texas) and rural (Amarillo, Texas) environments. The results of these case studies highlighted constraints in both data availability and appropriate analysis procedures. Final guidelines and methodology for DMS performance evaluation were produced emphasizing the limitation to assessment of both qualitative and quantitative benefits. A guidebook of DMS performance evaluation procedures was included as Appendix D in the research report.
