Effects on road safety of new urban arterial roads.
This paper presents an evaluation of the effects on road safety of new urban arterial roads in Oslo, Norway, and a synthesis of evidence from similar studies that have evaluated the safety effects of new urban arterial roads in other cities. A before-and-after study was made of four urban arterial road projects in Oslo. The study controlled for general accident trends in Oslo and for regression...
متن کاملUrban Road Repair Structural Design of Urban Roads
Municipal engineers are faced with the difficult task of managing the urban roadway network. Maintaining this significantly large and expensive infrastructure requires effective planning and design. However, the majority of currently available design tools were developed originally for analyzing highway pavements. Little attention has been given in the past to urban road related issues. The env...
متن کاملRoads to Development: Experimental Evidence from Urban Road Pavement∗
Urban peripheries in many developing country cities lack basic local public goods like pavement, water, sewerage and electricity. We estimate the impacts of slum infrastructure upgrading using an experiment in urban road pavement provision in Mexico. Our findings show that homes in streets that were paved increased their value between 13 and 24%. Households living in streets that were paved obt...
متن کاملPreferential Flow Influences on Drainage of Shallow Sloping Soils
The dramatic effect of flow through macropores and hardpan fissures on artificial drainage in shallow sloping soils is demonstrated. Implications of these preferential flow mechanisms on drainage design and water management are discussed. In designing drainage systems on these types of soils, more emphasis should be given to the characteristics of the hardpan.
متن کاملRoads and Landscape Pattern in Northern Wisconsin Based on a Comparison of Four Road Data Sources
Roads are important components of landscapes; they fragment habitat, facilitate invasive species spread, alter hydrology, and influence patterns of land use. Previous research on the ecological impacts of roads may have underestimated their effect because currently available sources of road data do not include the full road network. We compared differences in road density and landscape pattern ...
