Abstract:
A two-lane highway is an undivided highway with only one lane of traffic in each direction. Two-lane highways are one of the most common roadways at mountainous areas in China. Due to the wider range to choose the horizontal and vertical curves in the design of two-lane highways, the combination of both leads to larger differences on two-lane highway capacities. Thus, the highway alignments are one of the key factors which affect the two-lane highway capacities. According to the empirical data and existing studies, it is regarded that there is no impacts on the capacity for horizontal curves w

Abstract:
The performance of two-lane, two-way highways in Iraq, especially in rural areas, is often hindered by high traffic volumes, inadequate infrastructure, and safety concerns. This research focuses on evaluating and improving the performance of the highway connecting Salah al-Din Governorate to Kirkuk Governorate, which faces significant congestion and safety challenges. Using the Highway Capacity Software (HCS 2024) and the Highway Capacity Manual (HCM 7th edition), the study aims to assess the current and short-term future conditions of the highway, particularly in terms of traffic flow and ser

The study of traffic is fundamental in the quantitative of vehicles that transit in a highway, for a certain period. This article presents the BR 415 km 14 traffic study, Jorge Armado Highway, analyzing the current highway capacity and future demand for ten years, identifying the service level and the functional class, the average daily volume, to determine the demand of the highway. The Highway Capacity Method - HCM - was used for single lane highways. The method consists in classifying the level of service by the percentage of time spent following and the average speed of travel of the highw

Abstract:
Consistent highway design is expected to provide safe, economical, and smooth traffic operation. Several studies have been performed to investigate the effect of highway consistency on traffic safety. However, the relationship between design consistency and highway capacity and level of service has not been addressed in current research work and design practices. In addition, the effect of the three-dimensional (3D) nature of highway alignments was not considered, and design consistency was studied based solely on two-dimensional (2D) analysis of highway horizontal alignments.

With the nationwide promotion of ETC applications, congestion at highway toll gates has significantly decreased. However, some highway toll gates still experience frequent congestion due to mismatched passage capacity and demand. To address this issue, an innovative approach is proposed to use mobile IP technology in combination with ETC and manual lanes to achieve zero congestion at highway toll gates. Mobile IP technology involves switching IP addresses across different sites to monitor user entry and exit from highways. This reduces congestion at toll gates and significantly saves time for

Abstract:
Developments in high resolution traffic sensors over the past decades are providing a wealth of empirical speed-flow data. Travel demand models use speed-flow relationships to assign traffic flows to network links. However, speed-flow relationships have not been revalidated against new detailed traffic sensor data. Therefore, it is necessary to revisit speed-flow relationships based on actual measured conditions on network links rather than assuming constant speed-flow relationships over entire highway network systems. Speed-flow relationships have been particularly difficult to calibrate and

Deployment of truck platooning within interstate highways would result in significant fuel savings, but may have a direct impact on flexible pavement performance.

According to federal law, routine commercial vehicles must adhere to certain limits on their load configuration in order to operate legally on interstate highways. However, states may allow for heavier or different load configurations provided that bridges on the state and county highway system are load rated and, if necessary, posted with vehicles that appropriately represent these loads. The state of Indiana allows several classes of vehicles to operate with loads that exceed federal limits, and, presently, several LFD design loads are used to represent these exceptions as state legal loads.

Abstract:
Traffic signal performance measures based on connected vehicle (CV) trajectory data can provide practitioners actionable information on the operational state of their systems. A visualization framework that can enable agencies to quickly assess arterial-level performance by time-of-day (TOD) to identify challenges and opportunities has been recently developed. The framework provides information on four relevant signal performance measures over a corridor, including traditional Highway Capacity Manual (HCM) level of service (LOS), arrivals on green (AOG), split failures (SF), and downstream blo

Abstract:
Traffic signal performance measures based on connected vehicle (CV) trajectory data can provide practitioners actionable information on the operational state of their systems. Agencies need visualization tools that can enable them to quickly assess arterial-level performance by time-of-day (TOD) to identify challenges and opportunities. This document presents a framework to report four signal performance measures over a corridor for all relevant movements, including traditional Highway Capacity Manual (HCM) level of service (LOS), arrivals on green (AOG), split failures (SF), and downstream bl
