摘要: To reduce conflicts between trucks and smaller vehicles, most highway agencies including the Florida Department of Transportation have implemented various truck restriction strategies. The Truck restriction methods employed in various states include restriction by speed, lane, time, or Route. This study evaluated safety and operating characteristics of the Interstate 75 corridor in north Florida where trucks are restricted throughout the day from using the inside lane - i.e., lane closest to the median - of the six-lane facility. Based on the results of this study, it was concluded that the current lane restriction policy has positive impacts on safety and operating characteristics in the corridor and should be left in place
