| 摘要： | In Texas, high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) lanes have emerged as an integral part of the state's current and future transportation system to aid urban mobility. As a result, the issue of HOV lane design and the influence of design on safety has become the focus of much attention in the transportation community. The objective of this research was to develop a better understanding of the safety issues associated with HOV lanes, particularly buffer-separated concurrent flow HOV lanes. The research team increased their understanding of these issues by surveying transportation professionals from across the United States on the topic of HOV lane safety for barrier-separated and buffer-separated facilities. Electronic crash data was analyzed and crash reports from Dallas, Texas were reviewed to determine crash characteristics both before and after HOV lane implementation in selected corridors. |
