The study proposes the association between work zone types and work zone lane closure types used in the construction of South Korean expressways through the use of the text mining and association … [Read more...] about Analysis on Work Zone Characteristics in South Korean Expressways Using Text Mining Technique
Work Zone Capacity
Determining Work Zone Lane Capacities Along Multilane Signalized Corridors
The existing motor vehicle travel lanes are either narrowed to a single lane or diverted around the work zone, which may lead to disruptions in traffic flow due to reduced capacity. The capacity of … [Read more...] about Determining Work Zone Lane Capacities Along Multilane Signalized Corridors
Work Zone Traffic Management Analysis Using Analytical Methods
The course provides hands-on training on basic analytical methods (sketch planning methods) to compute work zone performance measures (WZPM). The WZPM includes the following factors: capacity, speed, … [Read more...] about Work Zone Traffic Management Analysis Using Analytical Methods
Effects of Short-Term Lane Closures on the Traffic Flow of Freeways
One of the main causes of congestion on freeways are lane closures due to short-term construction works or accidents. To avoid congestion due to these events, this study aims at analyzing traffic flow … [Read more...] about Effects of Short-Term Lane Closures on the Traffic Flow of Freeways
A New Analytic Neuro-Fuzzy Model For Work Zone Capacity Estimation
Implementation of regular maintenance and rehabilitation to roads often requires establishment of work zones, which usually result in closing of one or more lanes available for traffic. Closing of … [Read more...] about A New Analytic Neuro-Fuzzy Model For Work Zone Capacity Estimation
Improving Traffic Flow at Long-term Roadworks
Long-term roadworks on highways are vital as part of roadway and bridge renovations. They generate bottlenecks and can consequently cause congestion and accidents. If the number of lanes is reduced, … [Read more...] about Improving Traffic Flow at Long-term Roadworks
