Study on the Day-Based Work Zone Scheduling Problem in Urban Road Networks Based on the Day-to-Day Traffic Assignment Model
Many work zones exist in the urban road network and have a great negative impact on city traffic. Finding the optimal work zone schedule can minimize the negative impact of work zones on traffic. This … [Read more...] about Study on the Day-Based Work Zone Scheduling Problem in Urban Road Networks Based on the Day-to-Day Traffic Assignment Model
Modeling Highway Performance Under Various Short-Term Work Zone Configurations
Federal rules mandate state departments of transportation and metropolitan planning organizations to measure and report on the performance of highways within their jurisdictions. Those rules support … [Read more...] about Modeling Highway Performance Under Various Short-Term Work Zone Configurations
Time-Dependent Transportation Network Design Considering Construction Impact
A traditional discrete network design problem (DNDP) always assumes transportation infrastructure projects to be one-time events and ignores travelers’ delays caused by construction work. In fact, … [Read more...] about Time-Dependent Transportation Network Design Considering Construction Impact
Evaluation of Traffic Control Options in Work Zones
Lane closures for work zones along freeways produce bottlenecks. These bottlenecks are problematic due to loss of capacity and excessive lane changes, which impact the facility performance represented … [Read more...] about Evaluation of Traffic Control Options in Work Zones
Scheduling Work Zones in Multi-Modal Networks, Phase I: Scheduling Work Zones in Transportation Service Networks
The purpose of this project is to study the optimal scheduling of work zones so that they have minimum negative impact (e.g., travel delay, gas consumption, accidents, etc.) on transport service … [Read more...] about Scheduling Work Zones in Multi-Modal Networks, Phase I: Scheduling Work Zones in Transportation Service Networks
