Safety Treatments at Isolated High-Speed Signalized Intersections: Synthesis
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: High-speed intersections pose a safety and operational challenge. Currently, no specific guidance for treating high-speed intersections exists, particularly in the case of intersections with substantial truck traffic. To ...
Snapshot of Graduate Student Seminar Practices
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Civil engineering departments in the United States were surveyed to ascertain the range of practices for conducting seminars for graduate students. Two separate internet-based survey instruments were developed and utilized. ...
Development of a Methodology to Predict Through-Trip Rates for Small Communities
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper examines a new methodology to predict external trip exchanges in small urban communities. The paper documents a study performed on several small communities in Alabama and includes a video surveillance data ...
Feasibility Assessment for Implementing Adaptive Traffic Signal Control
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Adaptive traffic control systems (ATCS) continuously adapt to changing traffic in order to improve traffic performance at signalized intersections. Typical before–after studies evaluate the success of ATCS deployments by ...
