In the past, traffic condition data were usually collected by a government agency using its own sensors. Recently, a number of private sector companies have started selling travel-time and speed data collected using probe vehicles, which provides a viable opportunity to outsource traffic data collection. Because these data sources and their related algorithms are proprietary, the reliability and accuracy of this private sector data is often an important issue for transportation agencies. Previous studies have examined the accuracy of private sector data on freeways, but arterials have not been examined extensively. Arterials represent a fundamentally more challenging environment for probe vehicle data given the larger variance in travel times created by traffic signals and other intermediate access points. In the research, the quality of private sector data on arterials is evaluated by utilizing Bluetoo...","PeriodicalId":305908,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Transportation Engineering-asce","volume":"65 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-01-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129103465","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This method is believed to avoid wasting acceptable time gaps and therefore increase the capacity of the approach with SLSB. However, to the best of the authors’ knowledge, no analytical work and little empirical work has yet explored the impact of SLSB. To bridge this gap, the phasing scheme and an adaptive control algorithm are developed for the roundabout with SLSB. Case studies are conducted under different traffic demands to evaluate the method. The findings show that (1) in peak hours the SLSB method is useful to improve the operational performance of the signalized roundabout and solve the problem of unbalanced flow patterns; (2) the right-turning vehicle volume is the critical factor that influences the benefits of the SLSB method; and (3) the phasing scheme and adaptive signal control algorithm developed in this paper...","PeriodicalId":305908,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Transportation Engineering-asce","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-01-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122054151","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Existing methods consider a set of predefined prevailing conditions for the analysis of freeway facilities as the base case. However, a reliability analysis accounts for multiple recurring and nonrecurring congestion sources to estimate the travel time distribution over a long time horizon. This approach considers variations in traffic demand levels, inclement weather conditions, and incidents that occur stochastically on a freeway facility. Several performance measures are defined based on the travel time distribution, which comprehensively cover the full range of operational conditions on the system. Based on the proposed decision-making framework, mobility strategies can be identified, evaluated, and improved.","PeriodicalId":305908,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Transportation Engineering-asce","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-01-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128139474","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Regional Highways 1, 2, 7, 15, 16, 102, and 104 connecting the APC are considered as the case study. Integration of spatial input-output and transportation models simulates freight movements on the selected regional highways during the period of 2012–2100. TMI is estimated using downscaled average monthly precipitation and temperature at 34 stations within the APC. Simulated traffic loads and TMI are applied to mechanistic modeling of roughness progression on the pavement structure.

Different TSRSs, for example, employ different methods to determine or quantify sustainability and emphasize different sustainability factors.

This paper proposes a multiobjective optimization of the wagon flow organization for heavy-haul railway (MWFHR) to improve the transportation efficiency and the economic performance of a railway network. A bi-level algorithm is constructed to solve this model, where the lower level of the algorithm collects wagon flows for organization through the ant colony optimization algorithm, and the upper level screens for the best solution set that can minimize total cost under various constraints using the traversal search algorithm. The model is numerically examined in a real case study.

However, the traditional method in developing SCFs is time consuming and costly, which impedes the development of SCFs and their applications. Based on massive instantaneous vehicle activity data, this paper proposes a novel method for deriving SCFs for light-duty vehicles on restricted access roadways in Beijing. First, a large sample of 60-s speed-specific trajectories is divided from the vehicle activity data, and grouped into speed-specific trajectory pools. Then, a database and two models of speed-specific and vehicle-specific power (VSP) distributions are established for different speed ranges. Further, by combining emission rates and VSP distributions, the SCFs for nitrogen oxides (NOx), hydrocarbons (HC), and carbon monoxide (CO) pollutants are derived for different emission standards. The derived SCFs from different sources of VSP distributions are compared with each other and validated by using another independent data source. The analysis result shows that, by using the VSP distribution database, the proposed method is applicable and effective in generating reliable SCFs in high resolution. The VSP distribution models can predict well SCFs within each speed range, while discontinuous predictions occur at their range boundary. Finally, several recommendations are made for future studies on developing comprehensive SCFs, which may help in practice to monitor dynamic traffic emissions when the real-time speed data are available.","PeriodicalId":305908,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Transportation Engineering-asce","volume":"33 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-01-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130111880","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
