NETWORK DESIGN PROGRAMMING OF U.S. HIGHWAY IMPROVEMENTS

This is a study of the problem of planning long-range strategic improvements to competing routes or corridors of an interregional highway network. A network improvement programing formulation and heuristic solution approach are described, in which route improvement strategies are candidates for inclusion in 10-year increments of a 30- to 50-year planning period. Alternative investment strategies for each route are specified as mutually exclusive sets of improvements in succesive decades, where each set is treated as a separate project candidate in a project programining framework. The details of the improvement strategies are described.
