Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Many taxi drivers are willing to travel to the airport empty to pick up customers despite the much longer driving distance and waiting times. The underlying assumption of such behavior is the higher profits perceived by ...
Estimating Transit Route OD Flow Matrices from APC Data on Multiple Bus Trips Using the IPF Method with an Iteratively Improved Base: Method and Empirical Evaluation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: An iterative method is proposed to estimate bus route origin-destination (OD) passenger flow matrices from boarding and alighting data for time-of-day periods in the absence of good
Improved DTTE Method for Route-Level Travel Time Estimation on Freeways
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Travel time estimation plays an important role in advanced traveler information systems (ATIS) for dynamic traffic management. Static travel time estimation (STTE) and dynamic travel time estimation (DTTE) are two of the ...
Active Strategy to Improve the Right-Turn Capacity at Signalized Intersections
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Conflicts between the right-turn vehicles and crossing pedestrians at signalized intersections not only endanger pedestrians, but also impede the ability of vehicles to execute their runs. The strategy proposed in this ...
