Book excerpt: This report attempts to identify some of the key policy level questions that do (or should) arise from the consideration of HOV lanes and to shed light on some of the answers to these questions. The intent of this report is to provide the reader with a nontechnical introduction into the Texas experience with HOV lanes. This summary report is divided into three sections. The first section is a basic introduction to HOV lanes, including what they are, how they work, and typical reasons for considering HOV lanes. Following the initial section is a detailed discussion that sheds some light on the question: "Is this type of improvement the right thing to do?" That discussion describes the findings of the Texas research on some of the key questions that are typically asked when a community is considering an HOV lane. The final section of the report deals with how to know if an operating HOV lane is meeting expectations. It identifies measurable objectives and constraints that will provide important ongoing evaluation and feedback.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective of this research is to investigate the operational effectiveness of the Dallas area HOV lanes. Issues such as person movement, carpool formation, travel time savings, violation rates, safety, and project cost effectiveness are addressed. By understanding the operational performance and issues of both buffer-separated (concurrent flow) HOV lanes and barrier-separated (movable barrier contraflow or fixed barrier reversible flow) HOV lanes, recommendations can be made on suggested HOV lane implementation guidelines for the Dallas area.

Book excerpt: Limited capital investment for major transportation improvements and growth in metropolitan areas require the most efficient use of the existing transportation system. One means to achieve this is high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) lanes. While an extensive system of permanent HOV lanes is planned for the Dallas-Fort Worth urbanized area, the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) and Dallas Area Rapid Transit (DART) have pursued and continue to pursue short-term or interim HOV lane projects that would enhance public transportation and overall mobility. There are currently 57 km (35.4 mi) of interim HOV lanes operationalin the Dallas area, including a barrier separated contraflow lane on I-30 (East R.L. Thornton Freeway) and buffer-separated concurrent flow HOV lanes on I-35E North (Stemmons Freeway) and I-635 (Lyndon B. Johnson Freeway). The objective of this research is to investigate the operational effectiveness of the new concurrent flow HOV lanes in the Dallas area, as well as to assess the effectiveness of concurrent flow (buffer-separated) versus contraflow (barrier-separated) HOV lanes. Issues such as person movement, carpool formation, travel time savings, violation rates, and project cost effectiveness are addressed. By understanding the operational performance and issues of both concurrent flow (buffer-separated) HOV lanes and contraflow (barrier-separated) HOV lanes, recommendations can be made on suggested HOV lane policies, including the type of permanent HOV lanes to be implemented in the Dallas area.

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.

Book excerpt: Program PCL is an interactive, screen-oriented, menu-driven, PC-based software package for the analysis of the effect of adding passing or climbing lanes to selected locations along two-lane rural highways. The main analysis functions choose the start and end locations of a climbing lane based on the speed differential of a heavily loaded truck; predicts the effects on level of service and average speed of adding a passing or climbing lane; and performs a cost effectiveness analysis based on reduction of delay and reduction in accidents. This programmer's manual provides a general overview of program logic and extensive documentation of the internal workings of some portions of the PCL program, including the utility module and application details.

Download or read book Preliminary Evaluation of Efficiency of HOV Lane Operation on I-40 Eastbound Memphis, Tennessee written by Rohitraj Patrudu Makena and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research is a preliminary ealuation of the effectiveness of the High Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) lane along I-40 eastbound Memphis, TN. This HOV lane is operated from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. during weekdays. Data for the analysis was collected over a two month period in June and July 2011 using standard techniques as well as low cost smart phone apps and consumer grade GPS navigation products. The data collected included hourly volume data, average vehicle occupancy, violation rates, travel times and carbon emissions estimates. The analysis consisted of three methods of measuring effectiveness: increasing person throughput, providing travel time benefits and environmental benefits. To check for statistically significant differences between HOV lane and other GP lanes statistical methods including the two sample t-test and Mann Whitney test were used. a concept of a beffer index was also used to check the travel time reliability for each lane. The result showed that the objective of increasing person throughput is not met for this corridor within Memphis, TN, and recommendations to improve the effectiveness of the HOV lane are presented.
