Abstract:

Increasing volumes of trucks on roadways cause increasing congestion and product delivery delays to the customers. Nowadays public and private stakeholders seek for efficient methodologies that may assist with identification of congested roadway segments and further allocation of the available monetary resources among the segments that require future improvements. This study presents two new applications that process the raw Global Positioning System data, collected from trucks, and efficiently calculate a wide range of performance measures. A case study is conducted to demonstrate how the developed applications may be used by decision makers in identification of the congested roadway segments, reliability of freight corridors, estimation of truck trips, analysis of rest areas and freight facilities, and freight transportation planning.
