A GPS-based bicycle route choice model for San Francisco, California

Jeffrey Hood, Elizabeth Sall, Billy Charlton · 1 Jan 2011

Recognizing the environmental and health benefits of cycling, cities around the world are promoting use of the bicycle for everyday transportation, but with limited information about the preferences of cyclists and the effectiveness of investments in bicycle infrastructure. To better understand the decision-making of cyclists, we estimated a route choice model with GPS data collected…

If telecommunication is such a good substitute for travel, why does congestion continue to get worse?

Patricia L. Mokhtarian · 1 Jan 2009

Saving travel has always been a motivation for the creation and use of information and communication technologies. So with the ongoing spread of ever-improving technologies, why do travel and congestion continue to increase? Twelve reasons for this paradoxical result are presented, as well as four reasons why some substitution can be expected.

The impact of autonomous vehicles on urban traffic network capacity: an experimental analysis by microscopic traffic simulation

Qiong Lu, Tamás Tettamanti, Dániel Hörcher et al. · 6 Sep 2019

Urban commuters have been suffering from traffic congestion for a long time. In order to avoid or mitigate the congestion effect, it is significant to know how the introduction of autonomous vehicles (AVs) influence the road capacity. The effects that AVs bring to the macroscopic fundamental diagram (MFD) were investigated through microscopic traffic simulations. This…

Lane changing models: a critical review

Sara Moridpour, Majid Sarvi, Geoff Rose · 1 Jul 2010

Lane changing maneuvers have a significant impact on macroscopic and microscopic characteristics of traffic flows due to the interference effect they have on surrounding traffic. Understanding the factors which affect drivers' lane changing behavior is important due to the implication of lane changing models in variety of traffic and transportation studies. This paper reviews the…

Variable speed limit: an overview

Bidoura Khondaker, Lina Kattan · 8 Jan 2015

This paper provides an overview of various variable speed limit (VSL) strategies developed over the last two decades. It first explains the theoretical background of VSL systems and how they can be used as dynamic traffic control devices to improve traffic conditions and increase safety. An overview of VSL control strategies, ranging from early rule-based…
