This paper analyses the relevance of the traffic delay generated during the A-8 Spanish Motorway maintenance activities in order to make recommendations for inclusion within the LCA of roads. Six … [Read more...] about Influence of Traffic Delay Produced During Maintenance Activities on the Life Cycle Assessment of a Road
Traffic Congestion
Evaluation of Interstate Work Zone Mobility Using Probe Vehicle Data and Machine Learning Techniques
According to the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), US work zones on freeways account for nearly 24% of nonrecurring freeway delays and 10% of overall congestion. Historically, there have been … [Read more...] about Evaluation of Interstate Work Zone Mobility Using Probe Vehicle Data and Machine Learning Techniques
Practical Road-Resistance Functions for Expressway Work Zones in Occupied Lane Conditions
In order to create a practical road-resistance function for work zones under different lane occupation conditions, the expected speed of vehicles was calibrated in the work zone simulation model based … [Read more...] about Practical Road-Resistance Functions for Expressway Work Zones in Occupied Lane Conditions
Fuel Consumption and Greenhouse Gas Emissions from On-Road Vehicles on Highway Construction Work Zones
Traffic interruption by lane closures in construction work zones (CWZ) is unavoidable when road maintenance activities are undertaken. This study evaluated the fuel consumption and greenhouse gas … [Read more...] about Fuel Consumption and Greenhouse Gas Emissions from On-Road Vehicles on Highway Construction Work Zones
Connected Vehicle Data-Based Tools for Work Zone Active Traffic Management
Work zones present challenges to safety and mobility that require agencies to balance limited resources with vital traffic management activities. It is important to obtain operational feedback for … [Read more...] about Connected Vehicle Data-Based Tools for Work Zone Active Traffic Management
