摘要: Many Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) districts struggle with congestion issues in growing small to medium-sized communities (SMSCs). Congestion in these communities is often highest along the state highways that also serve their major local travel functions. While there are extensive resources and literature dedicated to measuring, monitoring, and improving large urban area congestion, there was a need for guidance for small to medium-sized communities (population less than 250,000) to better understand and alleviate congestion before the problems escalate. Potential solutions and performance measure targets are different for smaller communities than those identified in the literature for urban areas. To this end, the primary objective of this TxDOT-sponsored project was to develop and test a framework for mobility monitoring in SMSCs, including economical (low-cost) monitoring techniques and the normal range of improvements for SMSCs. / NOTE: Project summary. / Supplementary Notes: See also PB2008-107642.
