Book Synopsis Pedestrian Operations at Single Point Interchanges by : Christopher M. Cunningham
Download or read book Pedestrian Operations at Single Point Interchanges written by Christopher M. Cunningham and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Single Point Interchanges (SPI's) are becoming increasingly popular throughout the state of North Carolina. There is potential for pedestrian movements across SPI's due to adjacent land uses typically built near these locations, such as malls, hotels, restaurants, and regional shopping centers. This research is a proactive effort to help alleviate potential pedestrian access issues that could arise in the future at these types of facilities. The recommendations of this research effort are based on observations of both positive and negative design elements at single point interchanges throughout North Carolina. Based on these observations, the following design elements are essential at SPI's to provide pedestrians with a safer, more comfortable crossing: 90° ± 20° crosswalk orientation; proper curb ramp orientation; high visibility crosswalks (in conjunction with abutting pedestrian facilities); stop bar placement; pedestrian separation; and appropriate barrier heights. In addition, lighting and the provision of adequate sight distance are attributes that the research team recommends to include in an underpass SPI design. Last, during the design of a SPI, future pedestrian traffic and corridor improvements should be considered so that curb cuts, raised walkways, higher guardrails, separation from traffic, etc., do not need retrofitting at a later date.

Book Synopsis Roadway Lighting Design Guide by : American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials
Download or read book Roadway Lighting Design Guide written by American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials and published by AASHTO. This book was released on 2005 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This guide replaces the 1984 publication entitled An Informational Guide for Roadway Lighting. It has been revised and brought up to date to reflect current practices in roadway lighting. The guide provides a general overview of lighting systems from the point of view of the transportation departments and recommends minimum levels of quality. The guide incorporates the illuminance and luminance design methods, but does not include the small target visibility (STV) method.
Book Synopsis Traffic Control Systems Handbook by :
Download or read book Traffic Control Systems Handbook written by and published by . This book was released on 1976 with total page 676 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This handbook, which was developed in recognition of the need for the compilation and dissemination of information on advanced traffic control systems, presents the basic principles for the planning, design, and implementation of such systems for urban streets and freeways. The presentation concept and organization of this handbook is developed from the viewpoint of systems engineering. Traffic control studies are described, and traffic control and surveillance concepts are reviewed. Hardware components are outlined, and computer concepts, and communication concepts are stated. Local and central controllers are described, as well as display, television and driver information systems. Available systems technology and candidate system definition, evaluation and implementation are also covered. The management of traffic control systems is discussed.
Book Synopsis Guide for Pedestrian and Bicyclist Safety at Alternative and Other Intersections and Interchanges by :
Download or read book Guide for Pedestrian and Bicyclist Safety at Alternative and Other Intersections and Interchanges written by and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alternative Intersections and Interchanges (A.I.I.s) are designs that improve operations and safety for motorized traffic by strategically adjusting the geometric features at a given location, working on the general principle of redistributing motor vehicle demand at an intersection in an attempt to limit the need to add capacity with new lanes to improve traffic flow. The TRB National Cooperative Highway Research Program's NCHRP Research Report 948: Guide for Pedestrian and Bicyclist Safety at Alternative and Other Intersections and Interchanges provides specific guidance for four common A.I.I.s: Diverging Diamond Interchange (DDI), Restricted Crossing U-Turn (RCUT), Median U-Turn (MUT), and Displaced Left-Turn (DLT). These designs may involve reversing traffic lanes from their traditional directions, which may introduce confusion and create safety issues for pedestrians and bicyclists. In addition, pedestrian paths and bicycle facilities may cross through islands or take different routes than expected. These new designs are likely to require additional information for drivers, bicyclists, and pedestrians as well as better accommodations for pedestrians and bicyclists, including pedestrians with disabilities.

Book Synopsis Traffic Signal Timing Manual by : U.s. Department of Transportation
Download or read book Traffic Signal Timing Manual written by U.s. Department of Transportation and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-02-20 with total page 286 pages. 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.
