摘要: |
Incidents are one of the principal causes of congestion on American highways. Many agencies are developing strategies to detect, respond to, and clear incidents so normal operations can resume. Moving traffic around incidents with pre-planned diversion routes and alternate signal timing plans are the major components of most incident management plans. The Denver Regional Council of Governments (DRCOG) Traffic Operations Program has developed a procedure to not only create incident management signal timing plans for the alternate routes, but to test them using the Federal Highway Administration's microscopic simulation program CORSIM. The benefit of the extra time spent on simulation is a more reliable timing plan that is ready for field implementation. (A*) For the covering abstract see ITRD E110327. |
