Highway Capacity and Quality of Service 2006
This Transportation Research Record contains 17 papers on the subject of highway capacity and quality of service. Specific topics discussed are as follows: variability in traffic flow quality; analysis of signalized approaches; including exiting vehicles in roundabout capacity estimation; rural freeway level of service; two-lane rural highway in Germany; predicting travel speed on urban arterials; measures of effectiveness for level-of service assessment of two-lane roads; all-way stop-controlled intersection queue length models; "Highway Capacity Manual" delay for signalized intersections; saturation flow rate; stochastic processes of moving bottlenecks; evaluating toll plaza operations; sensitivity of simulated capacity to modification of VISSIM driver behavior parameters; performance measures for two-lane expressways in Japan; capacity of small roundabouts; delay-based passenger car equivalencies for urban transit buses; and blocked time of permitted left turn lane group.
