The current procedure in the Highway Capacity Manual 2000 for analyzing actuated signalized intersections treats pedestrian crossing and timing in a fixed manner, which can lead to erroneous results in capacity and delay calculations. This paper introduces a new model that remedies such a shortcoming in the current procedure. The model takes into account the stochastic nature of pedestrian cros...

The intersection is a significant part of the urban traffic network. One problems signalized intersections results an analysis that do not match field. For border crossings in 1997 Indonesia, Indonesia Highway Capacity Manual, product 1994 data processing, was used. Traffic conditions were, course, different from today. Given changes related to traffic, such as increases number vehicles, land u...

This reference manual includes sections on (1) concepts of functional highway classification and functional system characteristics and (2) suggested procedures for functional highway classification in rural, small urban and urbanized areas. The material herein is adapted from two previous FHWA manuals concerned with functional highway classification. The relationship of this manual to these pre...

Since the introduction of the 1985 High way Capacity Manual,’ there has been much discussion concerning its application. This is especially true in Southern California, where most government agencies and consultants have not yet agreed on a methodology for calculating signalized intersection capacity and level of service (LOS). Current methodologies include the 1985 Highway Capacity Manual (HCM...

T he 1985 Highway Capacity Manual (HCM) introduces new concepts of capacity and level of sarvice that are, in some cases, radically different from those used in previous editions of the HCM.’ A previous article has presented and discussed these basic concepts and their implication on interpreting capacity analysis results.’ This article focuses on the three primary examples of markedly differen...

T his paper evaluates the entrance capacity and queueing delay for Automated Highway Systems through use of simulations and analytical modeling. Queueing statistics are also used to determine the sustainable capacity of alternative concepts, taking trip length distribution and spacing between ramps into consideration. Based on safety-spacing head­ ways (produced in a separate analysis), the mos...
