摘要: |
This is the fourth of five evaluation reports for the Advantage I-75 MACS electronic screening project. The vision of the Advantage I-75 program is to incorporate existing technologies into an ITS operational setting that will provide an initial step in the process of adapting the nation's highway systems to accommodate the increased demands placed on it. A field operational test entitled Mainline Automated Clearance Systems (MACS) was designed and implemented for the then-termed Advantage I-75 MACS program. The objective of the Advantage I-75 MACS operational test was to allow transponder-equipped trucks to travel any segment of the entire length of I-75 and Highway 401 at mainline speeds with no more than a single stop at a weigh station. The purpose of this portion of the evaluation was to develop a reliable computer simulation model to assess the effect that the Advantage I-75 Mainline Clearance Operation Test (MACS) has on weigh station queue length and the number of unauthorized (queue-based) bypasses resulting from weigh station overcrowding. |
