Highway construction zones present substantial safety challenges due to their dynamic and unpredictable traffic conditions. With the rising number of highway projects, limited accident data during … [Read more...] about A Traffic Conflict Risk Assessment Model for Highway Construction Zones Based on Trajectory Data
Work Zones
Investigating the Impact of Surrounding Vehicles on Merging Location Choice in Work Zones
Taper areas, where most merging events take place in work zones, have the highest crash probability within a work zone. To understand the factors contributing to the choice of merging location in work … [Read more...] about Investigating the Impact of Surrounding Vehicles on Merging Location Choice in Work Zones
Traffic Flow Simulation Analysis of Mixed Traffic Flow Involving CAVs and Human-Driven Vehicles in Urban Work Zones
With the acceleration of urbanization, developing public transportation is an important means to alleviate travel pressure and traffic congestion in cities. Work zones that occupy urban road resources … [Read more...] about Traffic Flow Simulation Analysis of Mixed Traffic Flow Involving CAVs and Human-Driven Vehicles in Urban Work Zones
How Cognitive Distraction Affects Motorway Short-Term Work Zone Safety Along Curves: A Driving Simulation Study
This study investigates how cognitive distraction affects driver behaviour on a two-lane motorway reduced to one lane (the left) in a short-term work zone along a left-hand curve. Forty-two … [Read more...] about How Cognitive Distraction Affects Motorway Short-Term Work Zone Safety Along Curves: A Driving Simulation Study
Adaptive Traffic Management for Emergency Vehicles in Work Zones
A work zone is a section of road with closed lanes for maintenance, forcing vehicles to merge and creating congestion bottlenecks on the highway. Emergency Vehicles (EVs) are vital for incident … [Read more...] about Adaptive Traffic Management for Emergency Vehicles in Work Zones
Modelling and Evaluation of Work Zone Queues: Istanbul Case Study
Road/lane closures due to maintenance works adversely affect the traffic conditions, causing delays in the various locations of the whole network. In Istanbul, Metropolitan Municipality charge the … [Read more...] about Modelling and Evaluation of Work Zone Queues: Istanbul Case Study
