Abstract: The configuration of service facilities, such as ticket vending machines, staffed ticket booths, automatic fare gates, and escalators, is an important issue for the plan and design of rail transit stations. Reasonable ...

Abstract: Variable speed limit (VSL) can be used on freeways to manage traffic flow with the goal of improving capacity. To achieve this objective, it is necessary that both speed and density dynamics be represented accurately. In ...

Abstract: On freeway corridors, traffic flow is limited by active bottlenecks. Weaving maneuvers (i.e., intensive lane changes) are a major cause of bottlenecks during high-demand periods. To relieve bottleneck severity, ramp metering ...

Abstract: Variable speed limits (VSL) aim to improve freeway mobility and safety by influencing collective behaviors of drivers. Thus, VSL benefits should be positively correlated with the VSL compliance level (CL). Surprisingly, a ...

Abstract: Pushbutton control is ideal for midblock crossings with low pedestrian and vehicle demand, but it causes significant interruptions to traffic flow with frequent pedestrian crossing requests. Therefore, we propose an adaptive ...
