This paper presents an overview of current management techniques that are aimed at improving the efficiency and productivity of urban freeways. The major topics that are addressed include capacity management techniques (entrance ramp control, mainline control, corridor control, and priority control); demand management techniques (peak-period dispersion, ridesharing, and improving public transit); and techniques of managing nonrecurrent congestion (traffic surveillance systems, servicing, and motorist information systems).
