TRAFFIC FLOW THEORY AND HIGHWAY CAPACITY AND QUALITY OF SERVICE 2004
This Transportation Research Record contains 11 papers on traffic flow theory and characteristics and 12 papers on highway capacity and quality of service. The papers on traffic flow theory and characteristics examine bottlenecks, driver behavior on freeways, traffic flow models, car following, light duty vehicle acceleration levels, lane changing in microscopic simulation models, network traffic flow simulation, modeling queues, an extended speed gradient model for mixed traffic, relationships between occupancy and density, and traffic flow characteristics on signalized arterials. The papers on highway capacity and quality of service discuss estimating operating speed and capacity in work zones, traffic flow on freeway upgrades, freeway bottlenecks, quality-of-service perceptions by rural freeway travelers, INTEGRATION 2.30 for modeling lane changing in weaving sections, freeway users' perceptions of quality of service, acceleration behavior at all-way stop-controlled intersections, driver perceptions of service quality on urban streets, focus group findings on "Highway Capacity Manual" and highway capacity modeling tools, level of service assessment across modes, queue discharge patterns, and capacity at two-way stop-controlled intersections.
