The 1985 Highway Capacity Manual and Road User Costs for Two - Lane Roads
R oad user cost is an important consideration in highway economic analyses. The two main components of this cost are (a) motorvehicle running cost and (b) travel time. Highway engineers and economists know that, for road user costs (running costs plus travel time), lower traffic volume usually provides the least unit cost; as volume increases, the cost to the user increases because of congestio...
متن کاملSchedule Multiple Highway Construction Projects
The scheduling of numerous construction projects considering several factors is an important challenge faced by construction companies, particularly road builders. Road builders need to make decision to identify the best possible schedule to complete multiple constructions while considering multiple factor such as maximizing profit, reducing risk, and resource constraints among many other factors.
متن کاملA Model for Prioritizing the Risks Associated with Road Construction Projects Based on Generalized Secondary Goal
This paper aims at providing a new model based on Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) to prioritize project risks. It is clear that the large amounts of involved capitals, the long term of infrastructure projects’ implementation, and the project management problems in on-time completion of projects indicate the necessity of paying particular attention to this issue and conducting applied researc...
متن کاملEvaluation of the Effects of Maintenance and Rehabilitation Projects on Road User Costs via HDM-4 Software
Rapid growth in a number of vehicles on roadways accelerates pavement deterioration trends. Pavement inefficiency in carrying the applied load from passing vehicles results in spending significant costs on continues Maintenance and Rehabilitation (M&R) treatments. Lane closure owing to the implementation of M&R operations incurs enormous costs on road users. The research aimed to calculate, and...
متن کاملGreen Performance Contracting Strategy for Highway Construction Projects
With the growing awareness of sustainability and global climate change, state highway agencies are taking essential steps to reduce carbon emissions from highway infrastructure on a life cycle basis. While much is known regarding climate change mitigation and adaption strategies during highway operation, very little is understood about how climate change issues should be integrated into highway...
