An Alternative Design for Traffic Intersections With Work Zones by Using Pre-signals
The lane closures caused by the work zone at the approaches create a negative impact on the operational effectiveness of the signalized intersections. This paper presents an innovative design for … [Read more...] about An Alternative Design for Traffic Intersections With Work Zones by Using Pre-signals
Strategies for Work Zone Transportation Management Plans
One of the ways a state department of transportation or other transportation agency can address work zone safety and other impacts is to develop and implement a transportation management plan (TMP). … [Read more...] about Strategies for Work Zone Transportation Management Plans
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
Work Zone Traffic Simulation Using Cellular Automata
The focus of the present work is to develop a simulation model using cellular automata for work zone traffic containing homogeneous traffic condition. Work zone is created by blocking some of the … [Read more...] about Work Zone Traffic Simulation Using Cellular Automata
