Merging Area

Spatial-Temporal Varying Coefficient Model for Lane-Changing Behavior in Work Zone Merging Areas

This study investigates the lane-changing behavior in work zone merging areas during the period from the time of starting a lane-changing maneuver to that of completing the lane-changing maneuver. … [Read more...] about Spatial-Temporal Varying Coefficient Model for Lane-Changing Behavior in Work Zone Merging Areas

Analysis of Driver’s Decision Distance and Merging Distance in Work Zone Area Based on Parametric Survival Models: With the Aid of a Driving Simulator Experiment

Work zones affect traffic safety and efficiency by changing the road condition and drivers’ maneuver. Therefore, it is important to fully understand drivers’ merging behavior in work zone related … [Read more...] about Analysis of Driver’s Decision Distance and Merging Distance in Work Zone Area Based on Parametric Survival Models: With the Aid of a Driving Simulator Experiment

Lane-Based Vehicular Speed Characteristics Analysis for Freeway Work Zones Using Aerial Videos

Work zones which are usually referred to as traffic bottlenecks or critical points may lead to reductions in both operational performance and safety. Most of present studies are based on simulation … [Read more...] about Lane-Based Vehicular Speed Characteristics Analysis for Freeway Work Zones Using Aerial Videos

Modeling and Predicting Stochastic Merging Behaviors at Freeway On-Ramp Bottlenecks

Merging behavior is inevitable at on-ramp bottlenecks and is a significant factor in triggering traffic breakdown. In modeling merging behaviors, the gap acceptance theory is generally used. Gap … [Read more...] about Modeling and Predicting Stochastic Merging Behaviors at Freeway On-Ramp Bottlenecks

Merging Vehicles and Lane Speed-Flow Relationship in a Work Zone

In addition to closed merge lanes as physical bottlenecks of work zones, traffic oscillations caused by merging vehicles at multiple locations could reduce work zone capacity. This study took a … [Read more...] about Merging Vehicles and Lane Speed-Flow Relationship in a Work Zone

Time-varying Mixed Logit Model for Vehicle Merging Behavior in Work Zone Merging Areas

This study aims to develop a time-varying mixed logit model for the vehicle merging behavior in work zone merging areas during the merging implementation period from the time of starting a merging … [Read more...] about Time-varying Mixed Logit Model for Vehicle Merging Behavior in Work Zone Merging Areas
