Abstract:

In June 2010 a team of 10 U.S. transportation professionals with expertise in planning, design, and operations of freeways visited four countries in Europe: England, Germany, the Netherlands, and Spain. The purpose of the scanning study was to examine active traffic management design practices used in other countries to improve the operational performance of congested freeway facilities without compromising safety. This 2010 scan built on other scans that focused on congestion management and managed lane programs.
