Two-Lane Highways: Indispensable Rural Mobility
Encyclopedia, 2022 Two-lane highways refer to roadways consisting of two lanes in the cross section, one for each direction of travel. Occasionally, passing lanes may be added to one or two sides of the roadway extending the cross section to three or four lanes at those ...

Measures of Functional Reliability of Two-Lane Highways [PDF]
Energies, 2021 Rural two-lane highways are the most common road type both in Poland and globally. In terms of kilometres, their length is by far greater than that of motorways and expressways.

Assessing Driving Risk at the Second Phase of Overtaking on Two-Lane Highways for Young Novice Drivers Based on Driving Simulation. [PDF]
Int J Environ Res Public Health, 2022 Overtaking on two-lane highways is a complex and multi-phase maneuver associated with high collision risk, especially for young novice drivers. Most of the relevant studies, however, focused mainly on the first phase, i.e., the lane-changing phase, such ...

Development of Direct Models for Percent Time-Spent Following on Two-Lane Highways
Frontiers in Built Environment, 2020 The percent time-spent following (PTSF) is a key measure for estimating the level-of-service for two-lane highways. However, PTSF is currently estimated indirectly using various measured field data.

Operational Considerations of Passing Zones for Two-lane Highways: Spanish Case Study
Promet (Zagreb), 2018 The U.S. Highway Capacity Manual (HCM 2010) methodology is used in Spain to evaluate traffic operation and quality of service. In two-lane undivided highways, the effect of limiting where drivers could pass slower vehicles, or passing restrictions, is ...
