Abstract: The land-use mix observed in the smaller Indian cities is peculiar, and in this context there were no past studies on how the land-use mix influences the travel pattern. The existing indices used for quantifying the land-use ...

Abstract: This paper assesses the implications of vehicle-specific operating speed and crash data on the geometric design consistency evaluation of rural highways passing through mountainous terrain. The consistency was evaluated ...

Abstract: This study investigates how the speed variability on curves affects the geometric design consistency and safety assessment of a two-lane undivided rural highway in mountainous terrain. Previous studies have shown that speed ...

Abstract: The operating speed model (OSM) is essential for geometric consistency analyses, but the formulation of OSMs for a complicated highway geometry is a challenging task. Highways passing through hilly terrain consist of a few ...

Abstract: Drivers’ speed choice on a curve depends on their perception of the safety offered by that particular geometric element. Perception is a latent variable and is difficult to measure directly from the field. This study assumed ...
