The impetus of this research is to meet the growing need for accurate and practical methods to support traffic analysis in work zones. This research examines the application of two classes of traffic analysis models, macroscopic sketch analysis and microscopic traffic simulation, to work zones. The research...
This document summarizes the results of the regional intelligent transportation architecture development for the Bismarck-Mandan (Bis-Man) area. Intelligent transportation systems (ITS) refer to integrated applications of sensing, communications, computer processing, and electronics to enhance the transportation...
This document summarizes the results of the regional intelligent transportation architecture development for the Fargo-Moorhead (F-M) area. Intelligent transportation systems (ITS) refer to integrated applications of sensing, communications, computer processing, and electronics to enhance the transportation...
This paper presents preliminary results of the VISUM Online validation. It compares traffic conditions estimated by VISUM Online to measured data. The results show that VISUM Online produces comparable traffic measures.
This research evaluates the effectiveness of the future Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT) adaptive signal control system on the arterial street network in Park City, Utah, that experiences both everyday and unpredictable changes in traffic flow. This report contains the planned methodology for...
This study reports on the performance of the extended HOV lines. Vehicle volume, average vehicle occupancy (AVO), modal split, person throughput, and violation rate were collected manually. Travel time and speed data were collected using the floating car method and global positioning system (GPS) software....

Congestion in Salt Lake City is showing an increasing trend and, as congestion reaches higher levels, benefits of the HOV lanes will also increase. It needs to be determined whether the Salt Lake Valley HOV lanes are performing effectively in terms of travel time benefits, safety and the ability to carry...
