Purpose This study aims to make full use of the advantages connected and autonomous vehicles (CAVs) dedicated CAV lanes ensure all CAVs can pass intersections without stopping. Design/methodology/approach The authors developed a signal coordination model for arteries with by using mixed integer linear programming. non-stop constraints are proposed adapt characteristics CAVs. As it is continuous...

The current paper aims at examining ways to support sustainable modes in a metropolitan environment, as means of enhancing accessibility and social equity. study adopts mix-method approach consisting field observations, literature review secondary data analysis. Through this approach, the research develops method for reconceptualising urban car traffic arterials provides coherent plan transform...

High-Efficient traffic system is very important for economy and society of c ities. Previous studies on the traffic comparison mostly took a city as a whole, but ig nored the differences among areas inside the city. But in fact, the traffic congestion in different areas with a city is mostly different. Taking typical megacities like Beijing, London, New York, and Tokyo as objects, this paper ma...

The theory of induced travel demand asserts that increases in highway capacity will induce additional growth in trac. This can occur through a variety of behavioral mechanisms including mode shifts, route shifts, redistribution of trips, generation of new trips, and long run land use changes that create new trips and longer trips. The objective of this paper is to statistically test whether th...

Keeping the density of traffic flow and air pollution in an acceptable level and developing a good capacity for transit in the high priority areas of the city, is really a big deal in large and crowded cities. To address this problem, a new method of intersection signal optimization is presented in this paper. Based on network fundamental diagrams, an Internal–External Traffic Metering Strategy...

Climate change and sea level rise have increased the frequency severity of flooding events in coastal communities. This study quantifies transportation impacts recurring using crowdsourced traffic flood incident data. Agency-provided continuous count station volume data at 12 locations is supplemented by crowd-sourced from location-based apps Norfolk, Virginia, to assess recurrent on flow. A ra...

In recent years, cycling has become an increasingly popular transportation mode around the world. comparison with other modes of transportation, is economical and energy efficient. While many studies have been conducted for analysis bicycle safety, most were limited in exposure data on-street data. This study tries to improve current safety performance functions crashes at urban corridors by ut...

Pavement friction has been widely recognized as an important winter road maintenance performance indicator for objectively assessing the level of service required to maintain safe driving conditions during inclement weather events. Despite significant efforts being put forth by agencies, prevailing surface snowstorms can yield negative consequences that compromise safety traveling public. Ackno...
