Traffic operations: Highway capacity. Transportation research record

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:220366
The area of highway capacity is receiving considerable attention because of the 1994 update of the 1985 Highway Capacity Manual and the ongoing research effort toward the next edition which will be published around 2000. The highway capacity issues related to interrupted flow facilities are examined in papers on delays at oversaturated unsignalized intersections; capacity of yield-controlled intersections; capacity of two-way stop-controlled intersections; travel times on urban arterial streets; evaluating lane utilization for auxiliary through-lanes at signalized intersections; capacity for right turn on red; effects of trucks on left-turning queues at compressed diamond interchanges; and the development of a safety-based level-of-service criterion for signalized intersections.
