This book was released on 2002 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The increasing number of trucks traveling on Virginia highways has led to a growing demand for public rest areas and private truck stops. This study developed a methodology to determine the supply and demand for commercial heavy truck parking using I-81 in Virginia as a case study. In this study, supply was defined as the number of parking spaces available for large truck parking, and demand at a given time was defined as the sum of the parking accumulation and the illegal parking. Extensive data on the characteristics of large truck parking including parking duration and accumulation for different times of day were obtained. Data were obtained at 14 public rest areas and 29 private truck stops. Detailed information was also obtained on the characteristics of each truck stop and rest area, including the location; number and types of parking spaces; and availability of other facilities, such as restaurants and showers. Two types of questionnaire surveys were conducted. The first involved truck drivers, and the second involved truck stop managers/owners. The data collected were used to develop models to describe the relationship between parking accumulation and independent variables such as traffic volume on the highway, truck percentage, parking duration, and the distance of a truck stop from the interstate. The models developed were then used to estimate demand in 10 and 20 years. Any shortfall in supply with respect to the estimated demand was then determined for each truck stop and the entire highway. The results indicated that the existing maximum demand is 2,947 parking spaces, which exceeds the supply by 309 spaces. This deficiency will increase to 1,193 and 1,463 spaces in 2010 and 2020, respectively, if the number of parking spaces for large trucks does not increase.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This report documents a study of truck parking issues along the major freight corridors in the 10-state MVFC region. An online GIS instrument was developed to administer surveys and allow for continuous public participation. The study surveyed highway patrol officers, public freight planners and truckers to identify parking facilities incommensurate with truck parking needs. It proposes a method to cluster marked spots for identifying areas with the most need for additional truck parking capacity. In-person carrier interviews were also conducted to further clarify truck parking problem causes and solutions. A set of low cost strategies are finally proposed to policy makers. This study also inventories both public and private parking facilities along the region's freight corridors and provides a review of previous studies"--Technical report documentation page.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This report documents the findings of a study to investigate the adequacy of commercial truck parking facilities serving the National Highway System (NHS). The study involved: 1) a national assessment of the extent and geographic distribution of parking shortages, 2) research to clarify drivers' parking-related needs and decision-making, and 3) development of a technical guidance document to be used by partnerships of public- and private-sector stakeholders in 49 States (excluding Hawaii) for inventorying current facilities serving the NHS, analyzing current and projected shortages in commercial truck parking at public rest areas and commercial truck stops and travel plazas, and developing plans for action at the appropriate jurisdictional levels. The process involved: 1) the development of an inventory of public and commercial truck spaces serving the NHS, 2) development, calibration, and application of a truck parking demand model, 3) a national survey of truck drivers to determine how drivers plan for and address their parking needs, how truck drivers select when, where, and at which facilities they park, and what truck drivers think of the adequacy of current parking facilities, 4) an estimate of parking demand using a modeling approach, 5) identification of parking deficiencies at the State and corridor level by comparing supply and demand, and 6) identification of improvements that were recommended by State partnerships to mitigate any existing or future problems identified."--Technical report documentation p.

Book excerpt: The purpose of this manual is to provide clear and helpful information for maintaining gravel roads. Very little technical help is available to small agencies that are responsible for managing these roads. Gravel road maintenance has traditionally been "more of an art than a science" and very few formal standards exist. This manual contains guidelines to help answer the questions that arise concerning gravel road maintenance such as: What is enough surface crown? What is too much? What causes corrugation? The information is as nontechnical as possible without sacrificing clear guidelines and instructions on how to do the job right.

Book excerpt: A multi-disciplinary approach to transportation planning fundamentals The Transportation Planning Handbook is a comprehensive, practice-oriented reference that presents the fundamental concepts of transportation planning alongside proven techniques. This new fourth edition is more strongly focused on serving the needs of all users, the role of safety in the planning process, and transportation planning in the context of societal concerns, including the development of more sustainable transportation solutions. The content structure has been redesigned with a new format that promotes a more functionally driven multimodal approach to planning, design, and implementation, including guidance toward the latest tools and technology. The material has been updated to reflect the latest changes to major transportation resources such as the HCM, MUTCD, HSM, and more, including the most current ADA accessibility regulations.
