Abstract:
The connection between traffic congestion and regional demand has become a consensus. A reasonable road network inflow control is essential to prevent the occurrence of congestion. With a consideration of deployment of detectors, an improved macroscopic fundamental diagram-based traffic volume dynamic control method via the feedback control is proposed in this study. Based on the origin–destination distribution of trips and connectivity of nodes, a novel method is adopted to identify the key nodes, on which the detectors are laid.

Abstract:
To alleviate traffic congestion and traffic-related environmental pollution caused by the increasing numbers of private cars, public transport (PT) is highly recommended to travelers. However, there is an obvious contradiction between the diversification of travel demands and simplification of PT service. Customized bus (CB), as an innovative supplementary mode of PT service, aims to provide demand-responsive and direct transit service to travelers with similar travel demands.

The research was spurred by the following factors: transportation-related findings from the Wisconsin Economic Development Corporation's Wisconsin Economic Future Study: Statewide and Regional Analysis; a general interest in intermodal diversion from federal, state, and local transportation agencies (to alleviate roadway congestion, reduce road deterioration, and reduce transportation emissions and pollutants); and seemingly const

Abstract:
Transit agencies rely on onboard rider surveys to produce data in support of planning initiatives, as well as Title VI and FTA reports. The findings and statistical analysis provide valuable information about riders; travel patterns; and the effects of new rail alignments, services, and fare changes. Historically, onboard surveys have been conducted with paper methods. However, as technology has become increasingly accessible, transit agencies have started turning to electronic methods for gathering information. This approach has many advantages, but significant changes to methodology and appr

Advanced traveler information systems provide travelers with pre-trip and en route travel information necessary to improve the trip decision making process based on various criteria (e.g., avoiding the negative impacts of traffic congestion, selecting specific travel modes, etc.).

To integrate transit networks, the model takes into account both the predefined timetables of public transportation services and the variability of travel times.

Abstract:
The Walking Suitability Index of the Territory–T-WSI is an innovative methodology to assess walkability. Unlike other methods and tools in this field designed to evaluate walkability on given origin-destination paths, T-WSI is conceived for area-wide assessments, typically at the neighborhood level. This can be achieved by visual surveys to collect data, which are easy to perform at street level, their further process via an algorithm, and their aggregation to assess the walking performance levels of the test area.

Abstract:
Data on travel patterns and travel demand are an important input to today’s traffic models used for traffic planning. Traditionally, travel demand is modelled using census data, travel surveys, and traffic counts. Problems arise from the fact that the sample sizes are rather limited and that they are expensive to collect and update the data. Cellular network data are a promising large-scale data source to obtain a better understanding of human mobility. To infer travel demand, we propose a method that starts by extracting trips from cellular network data. To find out which types of trips can b

Emission factors for benzene, 1,3-butadiene, formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, acrolein, naphthalene and also particulate matter (PM2.5) were implemented and the model was extended to integrate a probabilistic approach for the uncertainty quantification

Abstract:
Despite their inherent vulnerability to structural and functional degradation, transportation networks play a vital role in the aftermath of disasters by ensuring physical access to the affected communities and providing services according to the generated needs. In this setting of operational conditions and service needs which deviate from normal, a restructuring of network functions is deemed to be beneficial for overall network serviceability. In such context, this paper explores the planning of post-disaster operations on a network following a hazardous event on one of the network’s nodes.

The public transport industry faces challenges in catering to the variety of mobility patterns and corresponding needs and preferences of passengers. Travel habit surveys provide information on overall travel demand as well as its spatial variation. However, that information often does not include information on temporal variations. By applying data fusion to smartcard and Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM) data, researchers were able to examine spatial and temporal patterns of public transport usage versus overall travel demand.

Ride-sharing (RS) plays an important role in saving energy and alleviating traffic pressure. The vehicles in the demand-responsive feeder transit services (DRT) are generally not ride-sharing cars. Therefore, we proposed an optimal DRT model based on the ride-sharing car, which aimed at assigning a set of vehicles, starting at origin locations and ending at destination locations with their service time windows, to transport passengers of all demand points to the transportation hub (i.e., railway, metro, airport, etc.).

Abstract:
Lane markings (arrows) at individual intersections serve as interfaces to connect upstream and downstream intersections in signal-controlled networks. Demand flows from origins to destinations may need to pass through a series of intersections. If lane markings are not well established to ban turns at intersections, then paths connecting origin and destination (OD) pairs could be inefficient. Due to indirect connections, road users need to take longer paths to reach their destinations. Conventionally, network configurations are fixed inputs for network analysis.
