Highway Capacity and Flow Theory and Characteristics

S. C. Sharma / P. J. Lingras / A. Werner / R. P. Roess / D. S. Berry

The 18 papers in the report deal with following areas: highway economic analysis experiences; development of analysis procedures for signalized intersections; development of weaving area analysis procedures; using volume-to-capacity ratios to supplement delay as criteria for levels of service at traffic signals; volume-to-capacity ratio and traffic accidents on interurban four-lane highways in Greece; additional lost time cause by permitted left turns; a permitted-movement model for TRANSYT-7F; improved techniques for freeway surveillance; enhanced FREFLO; modeling of congested environments; some measurements of Robertson's platoon dispersion factor; urban traffic network flow models; use of predicted vehicle arrival information for adaptive signal control--an assessment; effect of traffic mix, volume, and geometrics on the trip time of passenger cars and trucks on urban freeways; a delay model for multiway stop-sign intersections: passing experiment on two-lane rural highways; the NETSIM graphics system; a microcomputer-based simulation program for intersection sites during reconstruction; development of graphics displays of the integrated traffic data system.
