Passing lane optimum length on two-lane highways

Canadian Journal of Civil Engineering, 2019
An investigation into the optimum length of passing lanes on rural two-lane highways is presented in this paper. A passing lane is a short length of added lane to improve passing opportunities on two-lane two-way highways. The study utilized field data and traffic simulation in this investigation, with field data primarily used in calibrating and ...

Impact of highway consistency on capacity utilization of two-lane rural highways

Canadian Journal of Civil Engineering, 1999
Consistent highway design is expected to provide safe, economical, and smooth traffic operation. Several studies have been performed to investigate the effect of highway consistency on traffic safety. However, the relationship between design consistency and highway capacity and level of service has not been addressed in current research work and ...

Procedures for Estimating Accident Reductions on Two‐Lane Highways

Journal of Transportation Engineering, 1992
Accident prediction models or the before-and-after study approach is commonly used to estimate the reduction in number of accidents resulting from highway improvements. The highway improvement evaluation results will depend on the approach used, if the two approaches do not yield the same number of accidents reduced.

Passing Activity on Two-Lane Highways in Spain

Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board, 1999
Presented in this paper are the results of research on passing activity on two-lane highways in Spain. The data were gathered on three highways in the province of Madrid, Spain (M-111, M-600, and M-607). Measurements were carried out in 3-h periods, on plain or slightly sloping ground, and for daily or weekly peak periods.

Modeling duration of overtaking in two lane highways

Transportation Research Part F: Traffic Psychology and Behaviour, 2013
The paper attempts to reveal which factors may influence the duration of overtaking in two lane highways. Questions such as what is the duration of young male and female drivers’ overtaking activities and, given that a driver conducts an overtaking maneuver, how long will it take, are addressed using classical survival analysis.

Queueing delay models for two-lane highway work zones

Transportation Research Part B: Methodological, 1999
The paper describes the adaptation and application of queueing models to estimate average delay at two-lane highways operating with a lane closure. In their original form, the queueing models predicted impacts at highway intersections controlled by vehicle-actuated traffic signals.
