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
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
Lane Width Estimation in Work Zones Using LiDAR-Based Mobile Mapping Systems
Lane width evaluation is one of the crucial aspects in road safety inspection, especially in work zones where an arrow lane width can result in a reduced roadway capacity and also, increase the … [Read more...] about Lane Width Estimation in Work Zones Using LiDAR-Based Mobile Mapping Systems
LiDAR-Based Mobile Mapping System for Lane Width Estimation in Work Zones
Lane width evaluation is one of the crucial aspects in road safety inspection. Moreover, lane width is one of the most important attributes of a road digital map for many applications, such as driver … [Read more...] about LiDAR-Based Mobile Mapping System for Lane Width Estimation in Work Zones
Effects of Roadway Factors and Demographic Characteristics on Drivers’ Perceived Complexity of Simulated Roadway Videos
This study examined drivers’ perceived complexity of simulated roadway videos using a full factorial experimental design that featured high and low levels of five roadway factors: (1) work zone … [Read more...] about Effects of Roadway Factors and Demographic Characteristics on Drivers’ Perceived Complexity of Simulated Roadway Videos
