摘要: The increasing interest in regional and corridor-based transportation operations and the incorporation of transportation system management and operations into the Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users (SAFETEA-LU) have made it important for the transportation operations and planning communities to use a common vocabulary. The purpose of this glossary is to provide clear definitions of terms as they are typically used in the context of regional transportation systems management and operations (RTSMO). This glossary is a first attempt at providing a comprehensive document of this nature. The definitions herein and any additional explanatory information are, to the greatest extent possible, based on existing definitions and descriptions identified in law or regulation, or in various documents developed and published by national transportation organizations (e.g., U.S. Department of Transportation, Transportation Research Board, Institute of Transportation Engineers). These references are cited for each term in the glossary. In some cases, the definitions have been enhanced or modified slightly to reflect current thinking within the profession. Whenever such changes or additional definitions were deemed necessary (as noted within the glossary), care was taken to solicit input from within the transportation operations and planning communities, typically by inviting comment from several TRB Committees and the National Transportation Operations Coalition (NTOC), which includes participation by a wide range of transportation-related constituencies. A number of transportation-related fields participate in regional transportation operations and management. This glossary provides a common vocabulary that may be used by practitioners in these fields to facilitate communication with each other and between disciplines about their regional transportation operations activities, and in dialogue with the transportation planning community.
