Abstract: Crashes are one of the major causes of traffic delays. It is therefore essential to clear crashes as quickly as possible. However, adverse weather conditions, especially rainy conditions, could potentially influence crash ...

Abstract: Transportation agencies are implementing traffic management strategies to improve mobility and safety on freeways. Ramp metering is a traffic management strategy deployed to mitigate congestion on freeways by using traffic ...

Abstract: Mitigating secondary crashes is one of the priorities in traffic incident management, but limited information on these incidents can hinder the selection of appropriate mitigation efforts. This study aimed to investigate ...

Abstract: Adaptive signal control technology (ASCT) is a traffic management strategy that optimizes signal timing based on actual traffic demand. Although meant to improve the operational performance of signalized intersections, ...

Abstract: The adaptive signal control technology (ASCT) is a traffic management strategy that adjusts signal timing parameters to optimize corridor performance based on actual traffic demand. This study used a Bayesian switch-point ...

Abstract: Transit signal priority (TSP) is a strategy that prioritizes the movement of transit vehicles through a signalized intersection to minimize transit delay and improve travel time reliability. Although the operational benefits ...

Abstract: Work zones are essential to maintaining and upgrading highways. The constrained driving environment in work zones tends to disturb the normal traffic flow, leading to reductions in speed and road capacity. These conditions ...

Abstract: High-occupancy toll (HOT) lanes have increasingly been adopted as a strategy to reduce congestion. While numerous studies have focused on the operations of HOT facilities, little is known about their safety performance. ...

Abstract: Florida’s Road Rangers monitor the freeways for incidents to minimize incident clearance duration. The objective of this study was to evaluate the extent to which Road Rangers reduce incident clearance duration. Because ...

Abstract: Traffic incidents adversely affect the safety and mobility of our transportation network. As such, accurate prediction of incident duration is critical in developing strategies and deploying resources to quickly clear ...
