Economic Evaluation of Route Choice Characteristics for Owner–Operator Truck Drivers in Southern California Freeways
(ASCE, 11/1/2021)This paper presents the results on the demand survey obtained from owner–operator truck drivers for their willingness to use truck-only toll lanes on Southern California freeways. The stated preference survey method was ... -
Statistical Analysis of Seasonal Effect on Freight Train Derailments
(ASCE, 10/1/2021)Freight train accidents can damage infrastructure and rolling stock, disrupt operations, and possibly cause casualties and harm the environment. Understanding accident risks associated with major accident causes is an ... -
Fitting and Characteristics Analysis of Travel-Time Fluctuations on an Urban Road Network
(ASCE, 10/1/2021)Detailed knowledge about the times at which links in a network suffer travel time instability is of great significance for route decision making and traffic management. With a data set of 1,170 links in a large-scale urban ... -
Traffic Inflow Control Problem on Urban Freeway Network for Disease Prevention
(ASCE, 9/1/2021)The outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) disrupted our regular life. Many local authorities enforced a cordon sanitaire to contain the rapid spread of the disease. Travelers can only pass the cordon after the ... -
Identifying Tourists and Locals by K-Means Clustering Method from Mobile Phone Signaling Data
(ASCE, 10/1/2021)Nowadays, a large percentage of people use smartphones frequently. The mobile phone signaling data contains various attributes that can be used to infer when and where the user is. Compared with other big data sources ... -
Improved Approach for Forecasting Extra-Peak Hourly Subway Ridership at Station-Level Based on LASSO
(ASCE, 11/1/2021)Prediction of the extra-peak hourly ridership (EPHR) is directly related to the capacity design of subway station service facilities. In the traditional station-level EPHR prediction process, the predicted value is simply ... -
Analysis of Intersection Site-Specific Characteristics for Type II Dilemma Zone Determination
(ASCE, 10/1/2021)Dilemma zone could be an effective surrogate safety measure of a signalized intersection because its length and location are significantly correlated with right-angle and rear-end conflicts and vary from one site to another. ... -
Emergency Vehicle Routing in Urban Road Networks with Multistakeholder Cooperation
(ASCE, 10/1/2021)The lack of multistakeholder cooperation is one of the main challenges faced by emergency medical services (EMS). Especially in the ambulance routing process, inactive traffic operators fail to provide coordination to ... -
Optimal Trajectory Control for Left-Turn Vehicles at Exit Lane for Left-Turn Intersections
(ASCE, 10/1/2021)The exit lane for left-turn (EFL) intersection is a newly proposed unconventional intersection that can alleviate left-turn traffic congestion at intersections. The EFL design characteristic lies in that a part of exit ... -
Improved Volume–Delay Function for Two-Lane Rural Highways with Impact of Road Geometry and Traffic-Flow Heterogeneity
(ASCE, 10/1/2021)Two-lane rural highways represent the absolute majority of road networks globally, but there is a noticeable lack of research on this type of road for traffic planning purposes. This paper presents the relationship between ... -
Macrolevel Traffic Safety Longitudinal Comparison in Shanghai, China
(ASCE, 10/1/2021)To ensure improvements are made in the parts of the city currently most prone to crashes, this study conducted a 2009–2016 longitudinal comparison of the traffic safety in Shanghai at the level of the traffic analysis zone ... -
Modeling Intrazonal Distance and Duration in Addressing Limitation of Intrazonal Generalized Cost Commonly Applied in Transport Models
(ASCE, 10/1/2021)The intrazonal modeling parameters of distance, duration, and generalized cost (GC) are conventionally estimated from a fixed-fraction of interzonal parameters or using linear equations. In this study, the intrazonal GC ... -
Risk-Based Calibration of Road Sag Vertical Curve Design Guidelines on Undivided Highways
(ASCE, 10/1/2021)Safety in highway geometric design is one of the main goals to be achieved. However, deterministic design criteria do not provide information concerning the risk associated with the design outputs proposed. To yield ... -
Developing Efficiency Attributes for Right-Turn Flashing Yellow Arrow on Impeding through and Opposing Left Phases Using a Multinomial Logit Model
(ASCE, 11/1/2021)The right-turn flashing yellow arrow (FYA) signal display is still considered a new signal practice in the United States. The Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD; 2009) allocates a signal phasing section for ... -
Better Rested than Sorry: Data-Driven Approach to Reducing Drowsy Driving Crashes on Interstates
(ASCE, 10/1/2021)Driver perception-reaction time and ability to sustain attention decrease as drivers become drowsy. The consequences of drowsy driving crashes are often worse on interstate highways due to the relatively high travel speeds ... -
Optimal Bus Bridging Schedule with Transfer Passenger Demand during Disruptions of Urban Rail Transit
(ASCE, 10/1/2021)To address the transfer connection problem for urban rail transit (URT) and bus bridging in the case of unscheduled operation disruption, an integrated optimization model for bus bridging timetables and vehicle scheduling ... -
