Travel Time Evaluation of Synchronized and Milwaukee B as New Interchange Designs
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This research evaluated the traffic performance of two new service interchange designs—the synchronized design which is related to a superstreet intersection and the Milwaukee B design that is related to a parclo B design—as ...
Optimization of Speed Hump Profiles Based on Vehicle Dynamic Performance Modeling
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Speed humps are in widespread use around the world. Despite their effective performance in increasing safety, they cause considerable damage to vehicles and discomfort to drivers and passengers. This paper investigates the ...
Comparing the New Double Contraflow Intersection to Conventional and Alternative Intersections
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This paper introduced a new intersection design, the double contraflow intersection (DCI), that could help at big, busy suburban sites, and explored how well it would work. The DCI uses contraflow left turn lanes on each ...
Before–After Safety Evaluation of Coordinated Ramp Metering System Using Empirical Bayes Approach: A Case Study on I-80 in California
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Coordinated ramp metering (CRM) systems are implemented on freeways primarily to improve operational conditions. However, smoother traffic flow resulting from CRM may also have significant safety benefits. The main objective ...
