摘要: This paper first defines freeway operations as a way to combat congestion and its damaging effects, which include driver delay, inconvenience, and frustration; reduced safety; and poor air quality. It identifies the basic principle underlying any freeway corridor traffic management (FCTM) program this way: If demand is not allowed to exceed capacity, congestion will not occur, and operational safety and efficiency will be maintained. The paper further looks at a comprehensive FCTM program as requiring a combination of approaches, techniques, systems, and operating policies aimed at establishing and maintaining a balance between highway capacity and vehicular demand.
