Due to special driving circumstance at work zone, driver's merging behavior differs from that at other highway segments. This study conducts a comprehensive analysis of the spatial characteristics of … [Read more...] about Spatial Characteristics of Merging Decision Making and Implementation at Highway Work Zone

Drivers’ Lane Change Maneuver and Speed Behavior in Freeway Work Zones
Lane changing and merging occurs more frequently in work zones than other roadway conditions due to mandatory lane changes that occur in work zones with lane closures. Discretionary lane changes are … [Read more...] about Drivers’ Lane Change Maneuver and Speed Behavior in Freeway Work Zones
Time-Dependent Drivers’ Merging Behavior Model in Work Zone Merging Areas
This study investigates the drivers’ merging behavior in work zone merging areas during the entire merging implementation period from the time of starting a merging maneuver to that of completing the … [Read more...] about Time-Dependent Drivers’ Merging Behavior Model in Work Zone Merging Areas
Modeling Vehicle Merging Behavior in Work Zone Merging Areas During the Merging Implementation Period
Using the classification and regression tree (CART) method, this study aims to model the vehicle merging behavior at work zone merging areas during the merging implementation period. Hereafter, the … [Read more...] about Modeling Vehicle Merging Behavior in Work Zone Merging Areas During the Merging Implementation Period
In-Depth Analysis of Drivers’ Merging Behavior and Rear-End Crash Risks in Work Zone Merging Areas
This study investigates the drivers’ merging behavior and the rear-end crash risk in work zone merging areas during the entire merging implementation period from the time of starting a merging … [Read more...] about In-Depth Analysis of Drivers’ Merging Behavior and Rear-End Crash Risks in Work Zone Merging Areas
Effects of Work Zone Configurations and Traffic Density on Performance Variables and Subjective Workload
This paper investigates the effect of changing work zone configurations and traffic density on performance variables and subjective workload. Data regarding travel time, average speed, maximum percent … [Read more...] about Effects of Work Zone Configurations and Traffic Density on Performance Variables and Subjective Workload
