Accession Number: 01088318
Record Type: Monograph
Availability: Transportation Research Board Business Office 500 Fifth Street, NW Find a library where document is available Abstract: This collection of 14 papers deals with the subject of geometric design and its effects on traffic operations. Specific topics discussed include the following: the Green Book's adjustment factors for entrance and exit terminals; crossover displaced left-turn and upstream signalized crossover intersections; accident modification factors for rural frontage road segments; predicting benefits of left-turn lanes at unsignalized intersections; evaluation of speed differential; regression model of car speeds and speed deviations in freeway work zones; right-turn deceleration lanes on urban and suburban arterials; lane width and safety on urban and suburban arterials; ramp control signals placement design; turn lane length at signalized intersections; urban freeway on-ramps; and the Green Book's acceleration lengths for entrance terminals.
