Book Highway Research

Download or read book Highway Research written by David J. Wise and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 2010-11 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 2005 Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users authorized the Dept. of Transportation (DoT) to establish a highway research program to address future challenges facing the U.S. highway system. In 2006, the Second Strategic Highway Research Program was established to conduct research in four areas -- safety, renewal, reliability, and capacity. The legislation also required a review of the program no later than three years after the first research contracts were awarded. This report provides information about the process for selecting the program's projects for funding, the projects' status, and what, if any, research was eliminated because of funding and time constraints.

Book Integrating Travel Time Reliability Into Management of Highways

Download or read book Integrating Travel Time Reliability Into Management of Highways written by David Lewis Adams and published by ProQuest. This book was released on 2008 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With increasing traffic congestion, travel time reliability is becoming an important measure for travelers and freight shippers to plan trips. While adding lanes to increase highway capacity may be very expensive, transportation agencies can provide travel time information to customers at a relatively minimal cost. The Washington State Department of Transportation has initiated an innovative program to achieve this goal (WSDOT). This information can take various forms, and different methods can be employed to improve travel time itself. This thesis presents WSDOT's travel time reliability program as a case study. Data on speeds from Pennsylvania are then analyzed to better understand how one measure of travel time reliability, the 95 th percentile travel time, varies by time of day and day of the week. Finally, the thesis explains the applicability of travel time reliability as a performance measure to be used in decision-making. Travel time reliability should certainly be a measure in a transportation agency's goal of improved customer service.
