Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Integrated Corridor Management (ICM) approach has drawn increasingly more attention in recent years because it is believed to be a promising tool to mitigate urban traffic congestion. In this project, a maximum flow based control model was first developed to handle oversaturated traffic conditions at signalized arterials. Based on the arterial control model, an integrated control model was proposed to manage network congestion. Through diversion control, the model aims to fully utilize the available capacity along parallel routes. The impact of the diversion traffic is considered, especially for signalized arterials, so that traffic congestion on the diversion route can be reduced or eliminated by proper adjustment of signal timings. This model does not rely on time-dependent traffic demand as model inputs and it is ready to be implemented at typical parallel traffic corridors where the standard detection system is available. The performance of the proposed model was tested using microscopic traffic simulation in the I-394 and TH 55 corridor in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The results indicate that the proposed model can significantly reduce network congestion.

Book Synopsis Freeway Corridor Management by : Conrad L. Dudek
Download or read book Freeway Corridor Management written by Conrad L. Dudek and published by Transportation Research Board. This book was released on 1992 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This synthesis will be of interest to state and local traffic engineers, transportation planners, transit operators, law enforcement officials, public information agencies, and others responsible for the transportation elements of freeway corridors. Information is provided on the policies and procedures for freeway corridor management, and descriptions of a number of techniques and practices are presented. Traffic growth and increasing congestion on urban freeways require a comprehensive approach toward managing the complex elements of freeway operations. This report of the Transportation Research Board provides information on freeway corridor management strategies, the components of management, examples of effective applications of the strategies, and benefits of freeway corridor management. The management techniques that are discussed include freeway surveillance and control; corridor street surveillance and control; high-occupancy vehicle facilities and incentives; police enforcement and traffic control; hazardous material and other truck traffic restrictions; alternative route planning; motorist assistance patrols; motorist information techniques; and traffic management for recurrent congestion, for incidents, for special events, and for work zones.

This book was released on 1998 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The main focus of this study is congestion, primarily that occurring on freeway corridors in metropolitan areas. Lack of coordination in the operation of various components of the system is often a major source of inefficiency, resulting in greater delays to motorists than what might be achievable with the existing physical infrastructure. The main objective of the study is to improve corridor network management by coordinating the various control elements in a freeway corridor, for both recurrent and nonrecurrent congestion situations.

Department of Transportation Federal Highway Administration and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2009-12-30 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report provides a guide for achieving a basic service model for traffic signal management and operations. The basic service model is based on simply stated and defensible operational objectives that consider the staffing level, expertise and priorities of the responsible agency. The report includes a Literature Review, which provides a review of the National Traffic Signal Report Card and Self- Assessment, case studies based on agency archetypes that provide an understanding of how agencies deliver traffic signal management services based on their resources and interviews with acknowledged leaders providing support for the basic service concept. A discussion of signal timing versatility in support of the role it plays in providing good basic service is included in the Appendix.

Book excerpt: This report gives an overview of regional traffic signal operations programs (RTSOPs): what these are, how these could help address a region's mobility issues on the arterial street networks, their role as a cost-effective strategy for improving regional traffic signal operations, the many benefits these could give to agencies, travelers, and regions. The report further explains what organizations lead the RTSOPs, how RTSOPs are funded as well as alternative funding sources, and what differentiates them from normal traffic operations programs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report serves as a comprehensive guide to traffic signal timing and documents the tasks completed in association with its development. The focus of this document is on traffic signal control principles, practices, and procedures. It describes the relationship between traffic signal timing and transportation policy and addresses maintenance and operations of traffic signals. It represents a synthesis of traffic signal timing concepts and their application and focuses on the use of detection, related timing parameters, and resulting effects to users at the intersection. It discusses advanced topics briefly to raise awareness related to their use and application. The purpose of the Signal Timing Manual is to provide direction and guidance to managers, supervisors, and practitioners based on sound practice to proactively and comprehensively improve signal timing. The outcome of properly training staff and proactively operating and maintaining traffic signals is signal timing that reduces congestion and fuel consumption ultimately improving our quality of life and the air we breathe. This manual provides an easy-to-use concise, practical and modular guide on signal timing. The elements of signal timing from policy and funding considerations to timing plan development, assessment, and maintenance are covered in the manual. The manual is the culmination of research into practices across North America and serves as a reference for a range of practitioners, from those involved in the day to day management, operation and maintenance of traffic signals to those that plan, design, operate and maintain these systems.

Download or read book Integrated Multi-Criteria Signal Timing Design For Sustainable Traffic Operations written by Rui Guo and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traffic signal systems serve as one of the most powerful control tools in improving the efficiency of surface transportation travel. Traffic operations on arterial roads are particularly complex because of traffic interruptions caused by signalized intersections along the corridor. This dissertation research presents a systematic framework of integrated traffic control in an attempt to break down the complexities into several simpler sub-problems such as pattern recognition, environment-mobility relationships and multi-objective optimization for multi-criterial signal timing design. The overall goal of this dissertation is to develop signal timing plans, including a day plan schedule, cycle length parameters, splits and offsets, which are suitable for real traffic conditions with consideration of multi-criterial performance of the surface transportation system. To this end, the specific objectives are to: (1) identify appropriate time-of-day breakpoints and intervals to accommodate traffic pattern variations for day plan schedule of signal timing; (2) explore the relationship between environmental outcomes (e.g., emissions) from emission estimators and mobility measures (e.g., delay and stops) for different types of intersections; (3) optimize signal timing parameters for multi-criteria objectives (e.g., minimizing vehicular delay, number of stops, marginal costs of emissions and total costs), with the comparison of performance metrics for different objectives, at the intersection level; (4) optimize arterial offsets for different objectives at the arterial level and compare the performance metrics of different objectives to recommend suitable objectives for integrated multi-criteria signal timing design in arterial traffic operations.
