Strategies for Integrated Operation of Freeway and Arterial Corridors
项目名称: Strategies for Integrated Operation of Freeway and Arterial Corridors
摘要: Conditions on one road can affect the operation of nearby roads. Congestion, particularly unexpected congestion, can cause some travelers to shift to another route. In a freeway corridor, this often results in freeway traffic diverting to a parallel arterial street. If this additional traffic is not anticipated, the traffic signal timing will not be optimal. In many regions of the United States, freeways and arterial streets are operated by different agencies that lack clear strategies for coordinated operation of the corridor. Without these strategies, the agencies lack a compelling reason to enhance their traffic management systems to allow data sharing and coordinated response. The objective of this project is to develop a manual of recommended strategies for integrating the operation of a freeway and arterial corridor, including their benefits and methods of implementing them.
